Mamata's Bypolls Blues: A TMC Split Like No Other The withdrawals from the Rejinagar bypolls in West Bengal, including Rabiul Alam Chowdhury, a candidate backed by Mamata Banerjee's faction, have dealt another blow to her party's prospects.
The setbacks come on the heels of Sanchita Pradhan Dey's withdrawal as the faction's candidate in Nandigram just a day prior.
The reasons for these withdrawals are complex and point to deeper issues within the Trinamool Congress (TMC) party structure.
