New Delhi: In a significant political setback for the Trinamool Congress (TMC), a group of 20 rebel Lok Sabha MPs has announced its decision to break away from the party and merge with the Nationalist Citizens Party (NCP). The dissident lawmakers have also declared their support for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

The rebel faction claims to have the backing of more than two-thirds of TMC's Lok Sabha members and has sought recognition as a separate group in Parliament. Leaders of the faction said the move was taken after growing differences with the party's central leadership.

The development is likely to trigger a fresh political confrontation within the TMC, with the party leadership expected to challenge the rebels' claims and their bid for separate recognition. The split comes at a crucial time for West Bengal politics and could have implications for parliamentary equations in New Delhi.

Political observers view the move as one of the most serious internal challenges faced by the TMC in recent years, with its impact likely to be closely watched in the months ahead.
