TMC chief Mamata Banerjee addressed a party meeting in Kalighat following a poor performance in the West Bengal assembly elections, where the party won only 80 out of 294 seats. She stated that those who wish to leave the party are free to do so and she will not stop them. Encouraging loyalists to rebuild the party, she urged them to reopen and repaint damaged party offices, even offering to help personally. She claimed the TMC didn't lose the election but the mandate was 'looted'. https://www.prajavani.net/news/india-news/whoever-wants-to-go-may-go-mamata-appeals-defeated-tmc-members-to-rebuild-party-3988516 #creator program
