Trinamool Congress MP Kalyan Banerjee was suspended from the Lok Sabha for the remainder of the monsoon session after allegations of using inappropriate language towards women members of the Nationalist Citizen Party of India (NCPI).The suspension followed a complaint filed by MPs Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, Shatabdi Roy, and Mitali Bagh, who accused him of verbal abuse and misogyny.The incident occurred amid internal TMC strife, as 20 rebel MPs sought to merge with NCPI and support the BJP-led NDA.Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla approved the suspension via a voice vote, with the House citing the need to protect parliamentary dignity.Banerjee condemned the rebel MPs as 'traitors' and claimed the NCPI lacked electoral support.

This comes after the TMC lost the West Bengal Assembly elections to the BJP, leading to widespread dissent and multiple MPs defecting to other parties.The case highlights ongoing factional conflicts within the TMC and the political ramifications of intra-party disputes.
