Former Trinamool Congress MP Sushmita Dev Join BJP To Boost NDA Upper House Majority
Three former Trinamool Congress Upper House parliamentarians have officially joined the Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of the monsoon session. The leaders shifted allegiances just days
Three former Trinamool Congress Upper House parliamentarians have officially joined the Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of the monsoon session. The leaders shifted allegiances just days after resigning from their former party and the parliamentary house. This political shift bolsters the ruling national alliance in its push for a two-thirds majority in the Upper House. The national ruling party considers this crossover a reflection of growing faith in their governance and developmental vision.
Meanwhile, the regional party has dismissed the departing leaders as mere political turncoats, asserting that the exit will not negatively impact their organizational strength. The defecting leaders cited a lack of development and excessive opposition to the central government as their primary reasons for leaving, criticizing the regional leadership for allegedly protecting corrupt individuals. Loyalists of the regional party maintain that the exit of these leaders is purely opportunistic.
This major political development further complicates matters for the regional party, which is already reportedly grappling with significant internal rebellion and factionalism.
