Trinamool Congress moves Calcutta HC over LoP row
The decision comes days after 58 MLAs floated a rebel bloc led by expelled MLA Ritabrata Banerjee who was recognised by the Speaker as Leader of the Opposition
The Trinamool Congress has initiated legal proceedings in the Calcutta High Court to challenge the recent designation of the Leader of the Opposition. This move follows the formation of a breakaway group consisting of 58 legislators. The rebel faction is headed by Ritabrata Banerjee, who was recently dismissed from the party. The Speaker’s formal recognition of Banerjee as the opposition leader has sparked this significant political dispute. The ruling party is now seeking judicial intervention to address the legitimacy of this appointment.
The legal challenge highlights a deepening internal political rift and raises critical questions regarding the formal recognition of opposition leadership within the legislative assembly.
