Dimbhat Day (Bengali: ডিম্ভাত দিবস; ..lit: Egg-rice Day) is a popular slang term that refers to the Trinamool Congress's 21 July Martyr's Day Rally celebration. In 2011, the Trinamool Congress decided to organize the rally annually to commemorate the 1993 Kolkata firing, where many Trinamool Congress workers lost their lives. Since then, every 21 July is widely celebrated by Trinamool Congress workers across Kolkata and other neighboring areas, with many workers from various parts of West Bengal gathering in Kolkata.

Origin
The Communist government (CPIM) in West Bengal used to organize rallies and other party meetings where party workers were served with fish curry, as fish is a significant dish and cultural icon of Bengal. Following this tradition, the Trinamool Congress also updated their menu to feed their party workers who gathered in Kolkata for the rally celebration. Instead of fish curry, they started serving egg curry with rice. In Bengali, "egg" is "dim" and "rice" is "bhat," thus "Dimbhat" refers to "egg-rice." As this meal was served at the rally celebration, the day became known as Dimbhat Day.

Usage
The Trinamool Congress did not popularize the term "Dimbhat Day"; it was their opposition parties who started using it, claiming that the Trinamool Congress had no loyal supporters and only attracted hungry people paid for one day.

In the era of the internet, people began trolling the Trinamool Congress by mentioning "Dimbhat Day," which brought wider attention to the term.
