Not Everything is well in INDIA bloc as Mamta Banerjee again fires on Congress

With the 2024 Lok Sabha elections round the corner, the opposition’s INDIA Alliance, formed to fight Narendra Modi, is not going well for the past few months.

Nitish Exit from INDIA

First Nitish Kumar said goodbye to INDIA Alliance. So, now Mamata Banerjee is also seen raining thunder on the main party Congress in INDIA Alliance.

Mamta Slams INDIA

Mamata Banerjee is the Chief Minister of West Bengal. While addressing a rally in Bengal yesterday, she targeted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and said that Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyaya Yatra is just a ‘ photo opportunity’.

Challenge by Mamta to INDIA

While attacking Congress, he said that if Congress has the strength then it should show it by contesting elections from Varanasi and defeating Narendra Modi in the elections from Varanasi.

Mamta Rains down on Congress

Even though, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday challenged the Congress to take on the BJP in the Hindi heartland states while doubting their ability to secure “even 40 seats” in the upcoming Lok Sabha election, hours after Rahul Gandhi expressed optimism about resolving the seat-sharing deadlock in the state.

‏Mamta Banerjee’s remarks followed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s assertion that discussions on seat-sharing with the ruling Trinamool Congress were ongoing and the matter would be resolved.

Strongly criticising Congress’s ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’, which traversed through six districts of Bengal, Banerjee compared it to a “mere photo opportunity” for “migratory birds” aimed at dividing minority votes in the state.

Wondering whether Congress would be able to win even 40 Lok Sabha seats in the upcoming polls, CM Mamata Banerjee on Friday said the party was trying to appease Muslims for votes in Bengal like BJP did Hindus.

Banerjee’s Statement

Mamta said “We had suggested Congress contest 300 seats and leave the rest for the regional parties. Did it happen? No. Instead what did they do? They first came to Bengal to appease the Muslims. BJP tries to appease Hindus and Congress is here to appease Muslims. If there is one state that can fight against BJP, it is Bengal.”

Congress cannot do it. I wonder if they can even win 40 seats,” she said.
