Kolkata:
In another setback for an embattled Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, the party’s West Bengal president Chandrima Bhattacharya on Saturday resigned from all party posts.
Bhattacharya was appointed state president after the Assembly election defeat. She had replaced Subrata Bakshi as state president after Mamata Banerjee dissolved all party committees and restructured the organisation on June 3, following the electoral setback against the BJP.
“I hereby tender my resignation from the post of State President of All India Trinamool Congress, which was conferred on me in the meeting at Kalighat on 03.06.2025. I also hereby resign from all other posts which I hold at present,” she said in her resignation letter.
“Please note that I withdraw myself as the authorised signatory of All India Trinamool Congress and all other related organisations in respect of the accounts maintained in various banks. I also withdraw myself from being your authorised person before the Election Commission of India,” she added.
