Trinamool's Kalyan upset with CPI(M)'s Bikash for lawyering for former TMC MLA
Trinamool MP Kalyan Banerjee is upset because CPI(M) leader Bikash Ranjan Bhattacharya is defending a former TMC MLA accused of corruption. Banerjee questioned how Bhattacharya, who often speaks against corruption, could represent someone facing "serious allegations of corruption." This move raises political questions about potential understandings between parties.
