Notably, Pritam used to work in an IT firm.
Talking to the media, Rinku Majumdar said, “I was about to talk with Dilip Ghosh if my son can be brought to this house as he used to stay alone and sometimes his friends used to come over. He could not say anything but used to say that he was happy. As a mother I understood that he is feeling lonely. Most of the time he never took food on time.”
BJP Leader Dilip Ghosh said that he knew Pritam for a long time.
“I didn’t get the happy moment of fathering a son but got the misfortune of losing a son,” said Ghosh.
