TMC MP Threatens to Leave Party Over Reinduction of Former Leaders
A big leader in the Trinamool Congress (TMC) party in West Bengal, named Kalyan Banerjee, said he would leave the party if some people who left the party before are allowed to come back.
He thinks these people are not good for the party.
Another leader, Kunal Ghosh, agreed with Banerjee.
Banerjee also said that even if the TMC wins a lot of seats in the next election, the other big party, the BJP, would still try to form the government by giving money to TMC leaders.
This is a big argument inside the TMC party.
TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee threatened to leave the party if former leaders are reinducted.
Banerjee stated that reinducted leaders are 'traitors' and should not be welcomed back.
He claimed that even with a majority, TMC would fail to form the government due to BJP's influence.
TMC MLA Kunal Ghosh supported Banerjee's remarks, calling them emotionally driven but correct.
The controversy highlights internal divisions within the TMC party.
