The TMC on Monday sprung a surprise by participating in the meeting of MPs called by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and a protest against the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi from the Lok Sabha. 

Trinamool Congress MPs Jawhar Sircar and Prasun Banerjee were among parliamentarians of several Opposition parties who attended the meeting at the chamber of Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge, in the Parliament building. Kharge welcomed TMC’s move to participate in the meeting.
