In a significant development, Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee has addressed the issue of seat sharing with the Congress for the upcoming elections in the state. Speaking after a padayatra in Malda district, Mamata disclosed that she had offered two seats to the Congress in Malda, but the party was insistent on securing more seats.
CM's statement comes amid ongoing efforts by the Congress to form an alliance with the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal. Mamata Banerjee attacked the Mallikarjun Kharge-led party on Wednesday, saying their alliance with the CPI(M) will strengthen the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In a remark that virtually called the curtains on the INDIA bloc in the state, she said the Congress rejected her two-seat offer.
"The Congress does not have even one MLA in the state assembly... I offered them two Lok Sabha seats, both in Malda, but they wanted more. So, I told them I will not share a single seat with them. CPI(M) is their leader... have they forgotten the tortures of the CPI(M)?" she said.
