Mamata Banerjee seeks swift EC decision on TMC symbol, calls for protests
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has urged the Election Commission (EC) to swiftly decide on the Trinamool Congress (TMC) symbol dispute. She opposes granting further time to a rival camp within the party. Banerjee is reportedly preparing a 'Plan B' as the verdict nears. Separately, she alleged that protesters were branded 'anti-national' and called for statewide protests against the BJP over an alleged 'insult to Netaji's legacy'.
