The hearing assumes significance ahead of the bypolls to the Nandigram and Rejinagar Assembly constituencies on 6th October. The deadline for filing nominations is 16th September.
Asked whether his faction had received any indication that the symbol dispute would be resolved before the nomination deadline, Ritabrata Banerjee said it had specifically urged the commission to take a decision before that date.
“We have played our role. We have made our submission. We will be giving some more documents today itself. Now we have to wait for the highest apex body to give a ruling,” he said.
Banerjee added that his faction remained confident of securing the TMC symbol.
