An India Today exclusive report reveals the strategy of the Trinamool Congress rebel faction as they prepare to stake claim to the party symbol. The rebels, fronted by Kakoli Ghosh, assert that the party has deviated from its Constitution and are projecting the split as a legal battle. Citing the precedents of Shiv Sena and LJP, the faction has submitted a letter to the Lok Sabha Speaker, seeking recognition as the real TMC based on their numbers.
They claim Mamata Banerjee's decisions are illegal and are gearing up to fight for the party name. In a related development, TMC Rajya Sabha MP Prakash Baraik has resigned, citing the recent electoral mandate in West Bengal which favoured the BJP. Baraik emphasised the need for collaboration between the state and central governments to ensure development in his border constituency, highlighting projects like the Hasimara airport.
The crisis deepens for Mamata Banerjee as the rebel camp solidifies its legal and political strategy to take over the party.
