KOLKATA (06.06.2026): In what is turning out to be the most aggressive political realignment in West Bengal’s recent history, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) appears to have systematically engineered a blueprint to render former Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee politically redundant in her own backyard.
Sources indicate that after successfully denting her state-level apparatus, the saffron party is now moving to effectively silence her voice in Parliament — reportedly with the tactical assistance of her own lawmakers.
The structural collapse of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) has accelerated at a staggering pace. Following the appointment of the Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the state Assembly, more than 60 MLAs have already deserted Banerjee's camp. Now, the crisis has breached New Delhi’s legislative corridors, with over 21 party MPs currently running incommunicado.
