        <description><![CDATA[The Trinamool Congress (TMC) faces a severe internal crisis in 2026, with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee losing her seat of power and a significant number of party legislators and parliamentarians defecting, creating three distinct factions led by Mamata, Ritabrata Banerjee as Leader of Opposition with over 60 MLAs, and Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar with 19 Lok Sabha MPs, while three Rajya Sabha MPs have resigned and Mamata's close aide has issued an ultimatum to choose between him and Abhishek Banerjee, whom many criticize for his "arrogance." Adding to the turmoil, the party symbol is contested as Lok Sabha MPs claim majority status in a separate faction potentially supporting the NDA, while rebel MLAs will not back the BJP, leaving Mamata with dwindling options, including speculation about a merger with the Congress following a meeting with INDIA bloc leaders, and a disconnect from the party's founding ideology of 'Maa Maati Manush' due to alleged corruption and a loss of grassroots connection.]]></description>
