Mamata Banerjee formed the TMC on January 1, 1998 as a breakaway faction from the Congress party. Banerjee was a member of the grand old party for 26 years before quitting and starting her own party.
After two unsuccessful attempts in 2001 and 2006, the Trinamool Congress rose to power by defeating the Left Front regime in 2011, fueled by widespread public discontent against the communists.
In 2021, Banerjee led TMC to a resounding victory in the assembly polls securing her position as the chief minister for a consecutive third term.
