West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is reportedly set to abstain from attending the Ram temple consecration in Ayodhya on January 22. A senior Trinamool Congress leader asserted that neither Banerjee nor any representative from the West Bengal government or the party would be present, emphasizing the party's commitment to avoiding the amalgamation of politics and religion. The decision aligns with the Communist Party of India (Marxist)'s stance, while the event's impact remains divisive within the opposition. The ceremony has drawn varied responses, with some leaders expressing willingness to attend if invited.
