Election Commission meets both TMC factions as they dispute party legitimacy

The Election Commission has held meetings with both factions of the Trinamool Congress amid an ongoing dispute over which group represents the real party. Each faction has made competing claims to party legitimacy and organisational control.

The meetings come as tensions within the TMC remain high, with the two groups presenting their respective positions to the electoral authority. The EC's engagement with both sides suggests it is examining the factional claims carefully before any formal determination.
