The Trinamool Congress got a letter from the parliamentary affairs ministry asking it to nominate a party MP for an overseas tour. Railway Minister and Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee took less than a second to decide and nominated singer-turned-politician Kabir Suman.

While Suman is happy to be visiting Greece, Cyprus and Egypt over a 15-day trip, Banerjee is equally happy.
