The Election Commission has assigned new names and symbols to the rival Trinamool Congress factions for the October 6 West Bengal bypolls. The Mamata Banerjee-led faction will contest as the ‘Mamata All India Trinamool Congress’ with a football-player symbol, while the Ritabrata Banerjee-led faction will use the name ‘Democratic Trinamool Congress’ and an envelope symbol.
