Deadlock over swearing-in of two Trinamool MLAs

Bandyopadhyay and Sarkar were elected from Baranagar near Kolkata and Bhagwangola in Murshidabad district, respectively. Speaker Biman Banerjee said: "We want to know who will administer the oath... I am taking legal advice on the issue. We have written a detailed letter to the Governor. If needed, I will seek help from the President. I will also try to understand the Speaker's limitation and purview," he said.
