West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee enjoyed tea at a neighbourhood stall in Jalpaiguri on Wednesday, ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. An prominent political party in India, the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) is mostly active in the state of West Bengal.
It was established on January 1, 1998, by Mamata Banerjee as a breakaway wing from the Indian National Congress. Under her direction, it quickly gained notoriety in West Bengal politics. In addition to being the third-largest party in India in terms of MPs, right after the BJP and INC, it currently rules the state of West Bengal.With the party’s historic victory in the 2011 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election, the world’s longest democratically elected communist government—the Left Front—was overthrown, ending its 34-year rule. Since May 20, 2011, the party has ruled West Bengal after securing a three-time majority in the Legislative Assembly. As the party’s chair, Mamata Banerjee is in charge of AITC.
