Opposition protests invite to TMC rebels to all-party meeting

Opposition parties staged a walkout from an all-party meeting on Sunday. They protested the government's decision to invite a breakaway faction of the Trinamool Congress. The government defended its invitation, stating it must include all groups. Both warring factions of the Trinamool Congress exchanged sharp remarks during the meeting. This event foreshadows a potentially contentious parliamentary session beginning Monday.
