Trinamool Congress MPs are reportedly planning to defect from the party after their recent election defeat in West Bengal, with at least 20 of the 41 MPs possibly joining forces with the BJP. A closed-door meeting between these rebel MPs and BJP leaders is taking place in Delhi, led by Shatabdi Roy, Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, and others. The rebels aim to form a separate bloc within Parliament and are planning to inform the Speaker of their intentions tomorrow. This internal unrest follows reports of dissent among party members, including some MPs who have switched off their phones or attended meetings with opposing figures.
