Difficulties seem to be increasing continuously for Trinamool Congress (TMC) Chief and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. Amidst the ongoing rebellion within the party, West Bengal TMC President Chandrima Bhattacharya has resigned from all party posts. The special thing is that immediately after resigning, he also met the leaders of the rebel camp, due to which new discussions have started in the political circles. Chandrima Bhattacharya has been counted among Mamata Banerjee’s most trusted leaders for a long time. In such a situation, his resignation is being seen as a big blow to the TMC leadership.
Why is Chandrima Bhattacharya’s resignation in discussion?
After the setback in the assembly elections, Mamata Banerjee had made major changes in the party organization. During this time, Chandrima Bhattacharya was made the President of West Bengal TMC. He took this responsibility in place of Subrata Bakshi. Now in her resignation, Chandrima Bhattacharya has clearly said that she is separating herself from the post of State President as well as all other responsibilities in the party. Not only this, he has also announced to withdraw himself from the party’s bank accounts and the role of authorized representative associated with the Election Commission.
Meeting with rebel leaders after resignation
The most talked about thing in political circles is that Chandrima Bhattacharya met the leaders of the rebel group shortly after sending her resignation. It is being told that the rebel camp is being led by Ritabrata Banerjee. Amidst the already ongoing dissatisfaction within the party, this meeting is raising many questions regarding the internal situation of TMC. This is why the opposition is calling this development a big blow to Mamata Banerjee’s leadership.
How big is the rebellion in TMC?
The impact of rebellion within the party seems to be increasing continuously. After the setback in the assembly elections, many leaders and MLAs have raised questions about leadership. Political analysts believe that if disgruntled leaders are not persuaded soon, TMC may face further challenges at the organizational level. The conflict between the rebel group and the pro-Mamata leaders is now coming to the fore, which may have an impact on the politics of Bengal in the coming days.
Fight broke out at TMC office also
The political drama was not limited to just resignations. A big controversy has also come to light regarding Trinamool Bhawan in Kolkata. The rebel group claimed the party headquarters and called itself the ‘real TMC’. After this, Mamata supporting leaders also became active and a complaint was lodged regarding the matter. Considering the situation, security forces had to be deployed in the area. This development has made it clear that the conflict within the party is no longer limited to mere rhetoric.
BJP targeted
After the resignation of Chandrima Bhattacharya, BJP leaders have also intensified their attack on TMC. BJP says the growing discontent within the party shows that the Trinamool Congress is now facing a serious political crisis. Opposition parties are presenting this as the beginning of a big change in the politics of Bengal.
