Trinamool Congress to foray into Assamâs panchayat elections
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) will foray into Assam's upcoming panchayat polls for the first time, a West Bengal minister said. Apparently, TMC will try to capitalise on the issue of the recent killings of five Bengalis by masked gunmen in Upper Assam. The party had been in Assam's Assembly polls earlier but it has never contested the panchayat elections.
