TMC crisis deepens: Dissidents seek probe into party funds, Aroop Biswas writes to bank to freeze Rs 675 crore account

Trinamool Congress faces internal turmoil as dissident MLAs, led by Ritabrata Banerjee, demand a police probe into party funds, reportedly 675 crore. This follows former treasurer Aroop Biswas's plea to freeze the party's Kolkata bank account. Jyotipriya Mallick resigned from party posts, and Siliguri Mayor Goutam Deb stepped down. Banerjee alleges funds might stem from corruption and seeks investigation into their source and potential misuse.
