Former West Bengal BJP president Dilip Ghosh was not invited for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rally yet again, making it three times in a row.
The PM addressed a rally organised by the party's state unit at Dum Dum Central Jail ground on Friday evening.
Not getting an invitation for Mr Modi's rally in Alipurduar on 30 May and then in Durgapur on 18 July, the aggrieved former state BJP president this morning left for Bengaluru to meet the spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
On an earlier occasion on 18 July, he had also left for Delhi hours before Mr Modi visited Bengal to address his party rally in Durgapur the same day.
