Tensions within the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal have been escalating since the recent Assembly elections. Questions are being raised about the leadership of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and her son Abhishek Banerjee. Reports suggest that discussions are underway within the party to form a new party that would exclude Mamata Banerjee and Abhishek Banerjee. These discussions gained momentum after the party expelled two legislators, Ritabrata Bandopadhyay and Sandipan Saha, for allegedly engaging in anti-party activities over a signature controversy.
Following this, several observers have raised concerns about a potential split in West Bengal similar to the one seen in Maharashtra with the Shiv Sena. It is being reported that around 50 legislators are preparing to leave the Trinamool Congress. While some of these legislators have openly criticised the party's top leadership, others have been expelled for their alleged anti-party activities.
