Trinamool Congress MP Shatrughan Sinha says he will not leave party leader Mamata Banerjee during difficult times, responding to reports and speculation about his possible involvement with a separate faction within the TMC. In statements covered by multiple outlets, Sinha maintains that he remains committed to the Trinamool Congress and that Banerjee has previously supported him during personal and political challenges. He also frames his comments as a commitment to “speaking truth,” adding that he sees his role as standing by Banerjee and the party.
The remarks come amid discussion of a potential party “exodus” and claims that Sinha may be trying to form or align with a rebel group. Both sources report his denial and reaffirmation of loyalty, without providing independent evidence of any formal breakaway effort. Separately, Times of India notes that Sinha previously congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi on completing 12 years in office, describing him as a “friend and guide.”
