Rebels claim 19 MPs in \u2018real TMC\u2019 fight, set to meet Speaker<\/span><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

NEW DELHI\/KOLKATA: Rebel TMC LS members plan to meet Speaker Om Birla Monday to seek recognition as the \u201creal TMC\u201d parliamentary group, dissident Cooch Behar MP Jagadish Chandra Basunia said Friday, prompting strong reactions from the faction led by party chief Mamata Banerjee<\/a>.\u201cThe group has already submitted a representation to LS Speaker to stake claim,\u201d Basunia said on a day screenshots of a purported list of names and signatures of 19 dissident TMC LS members, including Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, Saayoni Ghosh and Mala Roy, surfaced online.While none from the rebel camp contested the screenshots, almost everyone voiced grievance against Abhishek Banerjee.Lashing out, Abhishek said, \u201cBJP has been trying many tactics \u2014 from creating rift in our party to intimidating party workers, taking over party offices, and destroying our organisation. But no matter what they do, they cannot deny the fact that 2.6 crore people voted for us and we got a 41% votes. We will continue to fight against this oppression.\u201dBasunia said there is no question of ED or CBI and \u201cthose who have signed the letter have consciously chosen to support BJP-led NDA\u201d. The letter, for which he claimed collection of signatures began on June 8 and 19 MPs have signed, is not on public domain.According to sources, CM Suvendu Adhikari may also reach Delhi on Sunday.<\/p>\n

6 more MLAs have joined us: Rebels<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

TMC\u2019s rebel bloc in Bengal assembly claimed to have grown stronger Friday, with LoP Ritabrata Banerjee asserting six more MLAs had joined them, taking the camp\u2019s strength to 64 legislators, and said a floor test could be conducted to verify support.\u201cJust as rebel MPs submitted their list to the LS Speaker in Parliament, the rebel TMC MLAs have also submitted their list to the assembly Speaker,\u201d he said. The LoP\u2019s claims come against the backdrop of several Trinamool MLAs publicly voicing grievances against the party leadership. Maheshtala MLA Ashok Deb, who was seen alongside TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee even after the party\u2019s poll debacle, launched a scathing attack on the leadership\u2019s decision-making process. <\/p>\n

Abhishek, Kalyan bury hatchet?
<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee on Friday extended an olive branch to his party and LS colleague Kalyan Banerjee, saying the latter \u201chad every right to criticise him\u201d, a day after the senior advocate called on party chief Mamata Banerjee to choose between him and her nephew. Abhishek said, \u201cKalyan Banerjee has every right to criticise me. He has raised me… I am neither angry nor hurt. I have always respected him and will continue to do so.\u201d Kalyan responded: \u201cAbhishek is like my own child. As an elder, I deserve a certain amount of respect. If he shows me that basic respect, I can embrace him and work with him. I have absolutely no objection to that.\u201d<\/div>\n
