Mamata Banerjee's niece found dead

Ex-West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee's 28-year-old niece has been found dead at her residence in Birbhum. Bristy Mukherjee had lost her job as a non-teaching staff member in 2023 after the Supreme Court invalidated 26,000 appointments that were made "illegally" through favouritism and exchange of cash. Her family contradicted, saying she'd resigned from her job after working for one day.
