In a separate move, Sreedip Das was named youth wing chief for South Kolkata. The reshuffle is part of a broader revamp after the 2026 Assembly elections, aimed at strengthening coordination between senior leaders and grassroots workers. Mitra, who won the Kamarhati seat by 5,646 votes even as the BJP surged across Bengal, is known for his mass connect and outspoken style. Political observers see the appointments as an attempt to consolidate the cadre base in the politically significant Dum Dum region. ## Coverage - millenniumpost.in Tags: Dum Dum, Madan Mitra, organisational reshuffle, TMC, Trinamool Congress, West Bengal politics Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/tmc-appoints-madan-mitra-as-dum-dum-district-chief/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
