Former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's visit to the Kalighat Kali Temple has gone viral across social media. The visuals, showing Mamata Banerjee waiting as devotees completed their prayers, have triggered widespread political discussion online. Many users contrasted the scenes with her years in power, while supporters argued that locals continue to affectionately call her "Didi." The viral moment comes at a time when the Trinamool Congress is facing one of the biggest crises in its history, with rebel MLAs challenging the party's leadership structure and raising questions about the future direction of the organisation.

Trinamool Congress has been rocked by one of the biggest internal rebellions in its history. A rebel faction led by Ritabrata Banerjee has claimed the support of 60 MLAs and formally sought recognition of a new leadership structure inside the Assembly. The faction has projected Ritabrata Banerjee as Leader of Opposition and submitted a letter to the Speaker backing the move. The development has triggered a direct challenge to the existing party structure and intensified questions over the authority of Abhishek Banerjee. While the rebels insist Mamata Banerjee remains their leader, the emergence of a parallel power centre has exposed deep cracks within the ruling party.
