West Bengal's Trinamool Congress nominates Ritabrata Banerjee for a Rajya Sabha by-election following a resignation over a rape case.

The Trinamool Congress has nominated Ritabrata Banerjee for an upcoming Rajya Sabha by-election in West Bengal. Banerjee, formerly with the Communist Party of India (Marxist), switched to the Trinamool Congress in 2017 and leads its trade union wing. The by-election is due to Jawhar Sircar's resignation over the state's handling of a rape and murder case in Kolkata.
