SC directs Election Commission to set time limit in TMC symbol row

The Supreme Court has directed the Election Commission to provide a reasonable time frame for resolving the dispute between Trinamool Congress factions. The court stressed the importance of timely resolution to avoid prolonged delays witnessed in similar political party disputes.
