Mamata Banerjee Plans to Join Opposition Protests Against CEC Gyanesh Kumar in DelhiPreviousNext

Former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee plans to travel to Delhi to join the opposition INDIA bloc's protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, with a possible participation in the Cockroach Janata Party's October 10 protest at Jantar Mantar. She criticized the BJP and Election Commission over alleged electoral irregularities in West Bengal and expressed concern over the treatment of Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi. Banerjee also seeks a meeting with President Droupadi Murmu to raise these issues. Rebel TMC MPs remain unfazed by her visit amid internal party disputes.
