'Abhishek Banerjee refused to step aside': Madan Mitra quits Mamata's camp, joins Ritabrata Banerjee's TMC faction
Trinamool Congress MLA Madan Mitra resigned from Mamata Banerjee's faction and joined the rebel faction led by Ritabrata Banerjee. Mitra accused Abhishek Banerjee of refusing to step aside amid the party's ongoing crisis, which has intensified following Enforcement Directorate summons to his family related to a municipal recruitment scam. This shift could further complicate the internal dynamics within the TMC as it grapples with legal challenges and factional disputes.
