As in-charge of the party in West Bengal, Vijayvargiya supervised its campaign in the 2021 assembly elections in the state.

"As far as I know, there is no chance of Kailash Vijayvargiya returning to the state," Roy told a vernacular news channel.

Roy had earlier criticised Vijayvargiya, former state president Dilip Ghosh and party leaders Arvind Menon and Shiv Prakash, blaming them for BJP’s poor show in the assembly polls held earlier this year.

Asked for his reaction on Roy's comments, BJP state president Sukanta Majumdar said he has nothing to say about the remarks.
