Mamata Banerjee disowned her brother Babun Banerjee after he opposed Trinamool's Howrah candidate. Babun, discontent with Prasun Banerjee's nomination, hinted at contesting independently. Mamata denounced him for stirring election turmoil and vowed to sever ties. Prasun, a former footballer, remains Trinamool's choice for the Howrah seat. Mamata's decision coincides with mounting electoral challenges and failed seat-sharing negotiations with Congress. The family rift adds to Mamata's political challenges ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
