Madan Mitra

TMC MLA Madan Mitra attended a Mamata camp assembly protest after joining a rebel faction. He clarified his presence at the protest was out of courtesy following a meeting with Ritabrata Banerjee and emphasized no change in his political position.

Mamata Banerjee rallied behind Abhishek Banerjee amid a rebellion within the TMC, vowing to rebuild the party. She accused opponents of attempting to harm her and linked Madan Mitra's exit to an ED summons against his wife and two sons.

Madan Mitra resigns from Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool party and joins a rebel faction. This follows Enforcement Directorate summons against him and his family in a municipal recruitment scam.

CPI(M) leader Minakshi Mukherjee was targeted with eggs being hurled at her. This is the first such incident against a CPI(M) leader, following similar attacks on Trinamool leaders, including Abhishek Banerjee, Mahua Moitra, Madan Mitra, and Kunal Ghosh, after they were voted out of power on May 4.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) raided properties of TMC MLA Madan Mitra to investigate allegations of receiving bribes in cash and gold through middlemen for appointing undeserving candidates to municipal posts in Kamarhati and Titagarh. The probe focuses on irregularities in recruitment processes for civic bodies.
