On Monday, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) expelled two of its sitting MLAs, Sandipan Saha and Ritabrata Banerjee, due to their alleged involvement in anti-party activities and repeated absences from party meetings. The decision was communicated through separate notices issued by TMC Vice President Chandrima Bhattacharya, who stated that both leaders had failed to attend meetings convened by the party's leadership and had engaged in actions contrary to the party's interests. The expulsion is effective immediately, meaning that both Saha and Banerjee will lose any positions, responsibilities, or privileges associated with the party. The TMC's action reflects its commitment to maintaining discipline within its ranks and addressing any behavior that undermines the party's objectives. This move is part of a broader effort by the TMC to strengthen its internal governance and ensure that all members align with the party's goals.
