Three former Trinamool Congress (TMC) Rajya Sabha MPs join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ahead of a Rajya Sabha bypoll in West Bengal. According to reports, the MPs are identified as candidates BJP is expected to field for the election scheduled on 24 July. The development is described as part of the BJP’s efforts to secure seats in the upper house, with the trio likely to receive new berths if they win the bypoll. One report frames the move as a switch ahead of the Rajya Sabha by-election, while another provides additional details that the former TMC members have been named as BJP candidates for the bypoll date. The articles agree on the core facts: the MPs previously represented TMC in the Rajya Sabha, they move to BJP ahead of the West Bengal bypoll, and the by-election is linked to the 24 July schedule. Both sources present the announcements as candidate-nomination and party-switch developments, without contesting the basic premise of the bypoll timetable or the identities described as “former TMC” members.
