After the expulsion of Mahua Moitra, Trinamool Congress’ numbers have reduced from 23 to 22.

There are now 17 vacancies in the 17th Lok Sabha.

However, since there is less than six months left for the Lok Sabha elections, there will be no by-elections to these seats.

These seats will go to polls with the rest of the country — likely in the summer of 2024.
