Big statement of CM Mamata Banerjee: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has expressed displeasure over the poor performance of India Alliance in the recently held Haryana and Maharashtra elections. He said, ‘If given a chance, I am ready to lead the India alliance.’
What did Mamata Banerjee say?
In an interview, Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee said, ‘I can comfortably take the dual responsibility of handling the opposition front while continuing my role as the Chief Minister of Bengal. I formed the Bharat Alliance, now it is the responsibility of those leading the front to manage it. What can I do if they can’t get it to work? I would just say that we all have to move together.
‘I don’t want to go out of Bengal but…’
When asked why you are not taking charge of the India Alliance despite your reputation as a strong anti-BJP force? On this, Mamata Banerjee said, ‘If I get a chance, I will ensure its smooth functioning. I don’t want to go out of Bengal, but I can run it from here also.
Many leaders have already raised their voice
More than two dozen opposition forces are included in the India alliance formed to compete with BJP. However, it has often been criticized for internal dissension and lack of coordination. This statement of Mamata Banerjee comes after the statement of her party MP Kalyan Banerjee in which he told the Congress and other alliance partners that the Congress and India alliance should keep their ego aside and Mamata Banerjee should be accepted as the leader of the opposition alliance. Should be recognized.
