TMC MP Saayoni Ghosh, once a close aide of Mamata Banerjee, has rebelled against the party. She is among the 20 dissident TMC MPs who have written to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla expressing their intent to support the NDA. An actress-turned-politician, Ghosh had joined TMC in 2021 and won from Jadavpur in 2024. The rebels are reportedly seeking to replace Abhishek Banerjee as the TMC parliamentary party leader with Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar and wish to sit separately in the Lok Sabha. https://argusnews.in/national/saayoni-ghosh-mamata-banerjee-aide-tmc-crisis #creator program
