TMC submits response to EC, rejects rebel faction's claim as 'fraudulent'

The Trinamool Congress, led by Mamata Banerjee, has formally responded to the Election Commission, refuting claims by a rival faction regarding party leadership. The TMC asserts its organizational committees are valid until 2027, citing constitutional amendments that extended their tenure.
