In a major political shift in West Bengal, suspended TMC MLA Ritabrata Banerjee has been appointed as the Leader of the Opposition by Speaker Rathindranath Bose after receiving support from 60 MLAs. This move marks a significant split within the Trinamool Congress, challenging Mamata Banerjee's absolute control. While the rebel faction expressed respect for Mamata as a 'mentor', they rejected Abhishek Banerjee's leadership. Simultaneously, a CID probe has been ordered into allegations of forged signatures in a rival proposal submitted by Abhishek Banerjee's camp. https://sambad.in/india-and-beyond/political-turmoil-in-west-bengal-11999178 #creator program
