Claim
Mamata Banerjee, who headed the government for 15 years, has completely lost control of the TMC.
“15 साल तक सत्ता की सिरमौर रही दीदी और उनकी पार्टी बदल गई। ऐसी बदली कि ममता बनर्जी के हाथ से टीएमसी पूरी तरह निकल गई।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Central assertion: Mamata (CM since May 2011, ~15 years) has lost control of TMC. The 15-year figure is correct and the loss of organizational control is strongly evidenced — majority of MLAs defected, 20 MPs left, she was removed as president and HQ seized. 'Completely' is dramatic framing; the EC claim is still unresolved and she contests it, but the substantial factual core holds.
