		Causing great “heart burn” in the Trinamool Congress camp, Ms Mukherjee betrayed enough courage to share the dais with her former rival and the chief minister at the election meeting which has obviously come as a bonus point for the Marxists.
		However, one thing that is clear and which the Trinamool poll managers are not conceding is that there has been concerted attempts on the part of the CPM as also the Congress to sort of force Ms Banerjee into devoting longer times in her home-terrain thereby curtailing her whistle-stop poll tours elsewhere in the State.
		Incidentally, South Kolkata is considered a bastion of the Trinamool Congress and barring once, voters have returned Ms Mamata Banerjee with huge margins, in fact her lead was two lakh votes in the last parliamentary poll.

		Kolkata, Jun 02 (PTI) The Nationalist Trinamool Congress is facing dissensions within regarding the party's continuance in the BJP-led NDA in the aftermath of its near-total rout in the recent Lok Sabha polls with its leader Mamata Banerjee announcing that it would remain in the alliance.
		The question regarding NTC's policy and functioning was raised by a section of party leaders like Saugata Roy and Sadhan Pandey after it was found that the minorities had deserted the party which was one of the major causes of its near decimation.
		Pandey's utterances assumed significance as it came in the wake of Trinamool Chief Mamata Banerjee's frontal attack on the Congress for forming government with the help of the CPI-M and her recent statement dubbing the party as the 'Marxbadi Congress'.
