Kolkata: In a sweeping organisational overhaul triggered by the split in the TMC's 28-year history, party supremo Mamata Banerjee on Friday unveiled a new leadership structure packed with loyalists and old timers, signalling a decisive move to tighten her grip over a party battling an existential crisis.
The reconstituted organisational committee, announced after a meeting of the party's national executive at Banerjee's Kalighat residence, marked a clear shift away from the next-generation leadership that had risen in recent years under the stewardship of party national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee.
