Mamata Banerjee has taken decisive action to restructure the Trinamool Congress (TMC) amid growing internal dissent and allegations of corruption among party leaders in West Bengal. By appointing Derek O’Brien and Dola Sen as general secretaries, she has curtailed the previously unchecked power of her nephew, Abhishek Banerjee. This change aims to address the discontent within the party, which has seen significant rebellion against Abhishek's leadership style, perceived as autocratic by many members. The dissent escalated after a May meeting where Abhishek was praised despite the party's poor performance in recent elections. In response to the internal turmoil, Mamata Banerjee has also appointed new leaders, including Chandrima Bhattacharya as the state president, signaling a shift toward a more collaborative leadership approach. Additionally, TMC leaders are facing public outrage and legal scrutiny over allegations of hoarding government relief materials, with protests erupting across various districts. These developments reflect a critical juncture for the TMC as it navigates both internal challenges and external pressures following a significant electoral setback.
