Former TMC Treasurer Seeks Freeze on Party Bank Accounts Amid Leadership Dispute
Former Trinamool Congress treasurer Aroop Biswas wrote to HDFC Bank on June 12, 2026, requesting a freeze on the party's accounts amid an internal leadership dispute. Biswas cited rival factions claiming authority over the party, raising concerns about unauthorized transactions and misuse of funds. The party has clarified Biswas was removed as treasurer earlier in June and replaced by Subhashish Chakravarty. The dispute follows a rebellion by a majority of TMC MLAs and MPs, leading to legal and organizational challenges.
