After being with the CPI-M for 40 years, it was not a birthday gift Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee would have exactly wished to get from the cadre-based party.
Irony
Chatterjee's 79th birthday falls tomorrow but a painful irony stares at his face after he was expelled by the CPI (M) yesterday punished for his defiance.
Born on July 25, 1929 in Tezpur in Assam, the 10-time MP has always been somewhat of an outsider in the party.
