The Calcutta High Court has refused to stay the Speaker's decision regarding the Leader of the Opposition (LoP) post in West Bengal. This comes as a blow to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's faction. Ritabrata Banerjee, a former TMC leader who challenged the party leadership, will continue as the LoP for now. The court's refusal to intervene immediately validates the Speaker's recognition of Ritabrata Banerjee over Sobhandeb Chattopadhyay. Political analysts view this as a shift in West Bengal's political dynamics following internal dissent within the TMC. https://www.dharitri.com/big-blow-to-mamata-banerjee-amid-party-infighting-high-court-reacts-to-speakers-decision/ #creator program
