The meeting, held at Banerjee’s residence in Kolkata, saw the attendance of nearly 70 of the party’s 80 newly elected legislators, along with senior leaders, MPs, and key functionaries, including Abhishek Banerjee.
The high-stakes huddle comes as the party begins internal consultations to chart its course after the electoral setback. Sources said the selection of the Leader of the Opposition is expected to be a major focus, along with discussions on the party’s strategy inside the Assembly.
