The Trinamool Congress (TMC) or the All India Trinamool Congress (AITMC) is a political party based in the eastern Indian state of West Bengal. It was founded by Mamata Banerjee in 1998 after she split from the Indian National Congress.
The party came to power in the state with Mamata Banerjee as the CM in 2011, defeating the Left Front in the Assembly elections and marking the end of the longest democratically elected Communist government in the world.
The Trinamool Congress led by Mamata Banerjee used the 2006-07 protests against the Left Front government over Nandigram and Singur to rally supporters and popularity in Bengal. It joined hands with the Congress in the state for the 2009 Lok Sabha elections and won 19 seats, thus joining the Manmohan Singh government at the Centre. Two years later, it ended the Left’s 34-year rule in Bengal. Earlier, though, the Trinamool had also aligned with the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance in 1999, when Mamata Banerjee was made Railways Minister.
Besides dominating Bengal, the Trinamool Congress has also contested elections in Assam, Tripura, Meghalaya, and Goa. The party is one of the strong opposition voices in the Union parliament.
Facebook should shut down its offices in India. A biased country where everyone is pro Indian Army and Indian Government. This is a prime example of what blunder Facebook has committed by only hiring a single country’s single religious community to represent a diverse region, with whom the country has explicit bias and hate for. Facebook should relocate to either Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan. Or hire equal number of diverse employees from those countries: Muslims, Christians, Sikhs and Dalits.
Her face with bindi should tell you how kuttar (bigot) Hindu she looks. An evil witch. I am not surprised to see why posts on Kashmir by Pakistanis and secular Indians were removed along with their accounts, but not of those radical Hindus, who post abusive content and call for genocide of Muslims in not only India but throughout the world. A backward country which has taught no ethics and morals to its vastly bigoted and bias population that posts a bigot anti-Muslim remarks underneath each post on Facebook newspaper pages even when the subject has nothing to do with Muslims.
“Incapable of being unethical” What an absurd phrase! This fatherly love seems to be blind and used to hide the truth.
