The ongoing internal crisis within All India Trinamool Congress has drawn three prominent Indian cricket figures into separate camps. Kirti Azad, now a TMC MP, has strongly defended Mamata Banerjee and dismissed rebel claims of support from 20 MPs, alleging a BJP-backed narrative. Meanwhile, Yusuf Pathan, a TMC MP from Baharampur, has come under scrutiny amid reports linking him to the rebel faction, though he has not publicly commented. Separately, former India captain Sourav Ganguly denied reports suggesting he acted as an intermediary in the party’s political dispute. (PC: AP, PTI)
