Lok Sabha Speaker invites Mamata faction to present case amid TMC split
The Lok Sabha Speaker extended an invitation to the Mamata Banerjee faction of the Trinamool Congress, asking them to present their case amid the party's internal division. According to the faction, the invitation was dispatched at 2 pm on June 16, requesting party General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee to meet the Speaker by 4 pm the same day.
The timing raised questions, as Abhishek Banerjee was undergoing interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate in Kolkata at the time of the invitation. The development underscores the deepening split within the TMC as different factions seek to stake their claim to the party's parliamentary representation.
