After Mamata Banerjee resigned as the Railway Minister to become the Chief Minister of West Bengal, Roy was handed additional charge of the Ministry of Railways after Mamata expressed her desire that her party retain the Ministry of Railways and personally recommended Roy to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Roy resigned from All India Trinamool Congress on 25 September 2017; later he was suspended from the party for six years for anti-party activities.
