The political crisis within the Trinamool Congress (TMC) appears to be intensifying as senior party MPs Sudip Bandyopadhyay and Shatabdi Roy met Union Minister and BJP leader Bhupender Yadav in New Delhi.
The meeting comes amid growing signs of dissent within the TMC and just days before a crucial meeting between rebel MPs and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. Sources indicate that the rebel group is seeking recognition as a separate faction in Parliament and may also request separate seating arrangements in the Lok Sabha.
