Congress chief Jairam Ramesh has mentioned that TMC is a vital pillar of the INDIA alliance and the alliance can’t be imagined with out Mamata Banerjee.
After Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee’s announcement that her occasion would struggle alone in Bengal, Congress chief Jairam Ramesh has mentioned that TMC is a vital pillar of the INDIA alliance and the alliance can’t be imagined with out Mamata Banerjee.
“You have not listened to the whole statement of Mamata Banarjee. Her whole statement is that we want to defeat BJP and we will not take even a single step back from defeating BJP. With the same feeling, we are entering West Bengal. When the journey is long, there can be some speed breakers in the path, and there can be a red light as well, but that does not mean that we should stop the journey itself. The journey continues; we cross the speed breakers, and red lights turn green,” mentioned Jairam Ramesh.
“Rahul Gandhi had clearly said yesterday that TMC, and especially Mamata Banarjee, is an important pillar of the INDIA alliance. We cannot imagine the INDIA alliance without Mamata Banerjee, and we hope that we will enter West Bengal with the same feeling of defeating the BJP as said by Mamata Banerjee,” he mentioned.
He additional mentioned that the problems could be resolved and INDIA alliance will contest in West Bengal as properly, standing united.
Earlier, the INDIA bloc suffered an enormous setback on Wednesday as Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee mentioned that her occasion declared that the Trinamool Congress would struggle alone in Bengal.
“I had no discussions with the Congress party. I have always said that in Bengal, we will fight alone. I am not concerned about what will be done in the country but we are a secular party and in Bengal, we will alone will defeat BJP. I gave many proposals but they rejected them from the beginning. From then, we have decided to fight the elections in Bengal alone” the TMC supremo mentioned.
The Bengal Chief Minister additionally claimed she had not been knowledgeable of Rahul Gandhi’s Nyay Yatra passing via Bengal, opposite to claims by the Congress that they’d invited INDIA bloc events to hitch the Yatra.
“They did not even bother to inform me that they will be coming to West Bengal as a matter of courtesy even though I am a part of the INDIA bloc. So there is no with relation with me as far as Bengal is concerned” Mamata Banerjee mentioned
“We will decide on what to do at the all-India level. We are a secular party. We will do whatever we can to defeat the BJP. The alliance does not comprise any one party. We have said that they should fight in some states and the regional parties should be left to fight alone in the other states. They should not interfere” she added.
The breakdown in Trinamool and the Congress got here after state unit chief Adhir Ranjan Chowdury continued his assault on the Bengal Chief Minister.
In a information convention on Tuesday Adhir Chowdhury claimed that within the 2011 elections, Mamata Banerjee got here to energy with the mercy of Congress.
“This time, the elections will not be fought at the mercy of Mamata Banerjee. The Congress defeated the BJP and TMC in the two seats that Mamata Banerjee is leaving. The Congress party knows how to contest the elections. Mamata Banerjee is an opportunist; she came to power in 2011, with the mercy of Congress,” the Congress MP mentioned.
Rahul Gandhi who’s in Assam as a part of his Nyay Yatra tried to quell the injury been completed by the state unit chief’s repeated assaults by insisting that he had a great relationship with the TMC supremo.
“The negotiations on seat-sharing is underway, I don’t want to comment here. But Mamata Banerjee is very close to me and our party. Sometimes our leaders say something, their leaders say something, and it goes on. It’s a natural thing. Such comments won’t matter and these are not things that are going to disrupt things,” Rahul Gandhi had mentioned on Tuesday.
The Trinamool Congress reportedly was prepared to supply the Congress a most of three Lok Sabha seats of the 42 seats in Bengal. In the 2019 elections the Congress had gained two Lok Sabha seats whereas the TMC had gained 22 seats.
With this announcement, of going alone, by Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday it seems that the doorways are closed for the Congress in Bengal. For the INDIA bloc stitching collectively alliances has confirmed as stumbling block and it seems that now the alliance could not have the ability to put collectively a united entrance in opposition to the BJP.
