The Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Monday expelled two MLAs – Ritabrata Bandyopadhyay and Sandipan Saha – for alleged anti-party activities. A letter informing the Speaker about the decision has also been
submitted.
The party accused the MLAs of repeatedly failing to attend meetings and getting involved in anti-party activities. “It has also been observed that you have engaged in activities and made statements that are prejudicial to the interests of AITC,” the TMC said in its notices.

“After due consideration of the matter, the competent authority of AITC has decided to expel you from the (primary) membership of the Party with immediate effect,” the notices said.
The party said that the two legislators would cease to hold any position, responsibility or privilege associated with the Trinamool Congress from the date of issuance of the notices.
