ECI Freezes TMC Symbol; Mamata Faction Lodges Strong Protest as Rahul Backs Didi
The Election Commission of India has issued an interim order freezing the All India Trinamool Congress name and its traditional 'Jora phul' (twin flowers) symbol ahead of crucial by-elections in Nandigram and Rajnagar. Under the order, neither the faction led by founder Mamata Banerjee nor the rebel camp headed by West Bengal Leader of Opposition Ritabrata Banerjee can use the name or symbol until the dispute is resolved. Both factions were directed to submit three preferred temporary names and symbols. Mamata Banerjee submitted her response lodging a strong protest against the decision. The Ritabrata Banerjee faction welcomed the poll panel's move, asserting that control over a political party cannot be inherited. Meanwhile, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other opposition parties extended support to Mamata Banerjee, criticising the Election Commission and the BJP. State BJP leaders remarked that the symbol freeze was inconsequential as the party had lost ground in the state.
