West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee urged members of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) facing external pressure to resign before July 21, following Rajya Sabha MP Koel Mallick's resignation. Banerjee acknowledged Mallick's departure and indicated that others might also be contemplating leaving due to pressure from the BJP and law enforcement agencies. She emphasized that those who choose to leave should not tarnish the party's reputation, asserting that the TMC would remain strong despite potential defections.
