Former West Bengal minister and veteran Trinamool Congress leader Jyoti Priya Mallick, popularly known as Balu, has resigned from all party posts citing health reasons. The development comes just days after a major organisational reshuffle within the TMC, where Mallick was inducted into the party`s reconstituted working committee. A longtime associate of Mamata Banerjee, Mallick played a crucial role in strengthening the party`s organisation over the years. His resignation has triggered fresh political speculation at a time when the Trinamool Congress is facing growing internal challenges and turbulence.
