Kolkata/IBNS: Amid speculations over Rajib Banerjee's 'homecoming', the BJP leader on Sunday late evening visited TMC leader and Bengal minister Partha Chatterjee at his Kolkata residence to offer condolences on his mother's demise, reports said.

West Bengal Minister for Industry, Commerce and Enterprise Partha Chatterjee's mother, Shibani Chatterjee, died of old age at Chatterjee's house in southern Kolkata's Naktala area at around 3 pm. on Sunday.

She was 91.

Earlier on Saturday, defector Rajib Banerjee, who had joined the BJP before Bengal polls but failed to win the contest from Howrah's Domjur assembly constituency, held an hour-long 'courtesy meeting' with his old party's state secretary Kunal Ghosh, a day after Mukul Roy's exit from BJP.

Roy joined the TMC on Friday in the presence of party supremo Mamata Banerjee.
