Expelled CPI(M) MLA and former West Bengal minister Abdur Rezzak Mollah today joined Trinamool Congress along with former India cricketer Laxmi Ratan Shukla and late cricket administrator Jagmohan Dalmiya's daughter Vaishali Dalmiya.
The three joined the TMC in the presence of its supremo and chief minister Mamata Banerjee at a programme here.
Speculations over the trio joining the TMC gained momentum after they met Banerjee at state secretariat 'Nabanna' last month.
Mollah, a sitting MLA and a former state committee member of CPI-M, was expelled from the party in 2014 for anti-party activities and had floated Nayvichar Manch.
Mollah was the Land and Land Reforms minister in the Left Front ministry.
