BJP MLA Tapasi Mondal switched to TMC, citing her dissatisfaction with BJP's divisive politics and lack of central leadership responses. This move reduces BJP's effective strength in the Bengal assembly from 77 to 65 seats. Mondal emphasized her inability to work effectively as a CPM MLA in 2016 and now supports Mamata Banerjee's development politics.
