The Trinamool Congress faces a crisis as a second Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament resigned within a week, dealing a significant blow to the party's top leadership. The resignation follows a major electoral defeat in West Bengal and growing internal rebellion. Discontent is brewing across both houses of parliament, with rebel legislators forming a separate bloc and demanding a merger with the Democratic Alliance.
The crisis is further fueled by allegations of limitless corruption and a disconnect between the top brass and grassroots leaders. A senior Lok Sabha deputy leader cited the lifestyle of the party's top leadership as a major point of contention, contrasting it with the party's original ethos of simplicity.
