In the midst of ongoing political tensions between the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) and their main opposition, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), over West Bengal's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, TMC National General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee is scheduled to address more than 10,000 party leaders virtually on Monday.

The TMC leadership believes several districts need stronger representation while the SIR exercise continues. The party has emphasized a clear directive: ensure all legitimate voters are included, with TMC grassroots leaders taking responsibility for this mission.

Trinamool's Focus On Matua Community

Banerjee will particularly concentrate on North Bengal and especially the Matua community, whose voters have traditionally supported the BJP but are currently experiencing difficulties due to the SIR process. The TMC aims to penetrate the BJP stronghold in North Bengal, which requires gaining support from Matua voters.
