Mamata Banerjee vows ‘outside support’ to INDIA bloc at national level

Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee said her party will extend support to the INDIA bloc from outside to form the government at the Centre.

Mamata Banerjee accused the Congress and CPI(M) of indirectly aiding the BJP in Bengal.

West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee asserted that her party would back the Opposition INDIA bloc from “outside” to form a government at the Centre.

The statement comes weeks after Mamata Banerjee stated, “There is no INDIA alliance in West Bengal. I played a key role in the formation of the opposition alliance INDIA. Even the name of the alliance was given by me. But here in West Bengal, the CPI (M) and Congress are working for the BJP.”

She reiterated her earlier remark on Wednesday, saying, “Do not count on the CPI(M) and the Congress in Bengal. They are not with us, they are with the BJP here.”

Mamata Banerjee attacked the BJP, calling it “a party full of thieves”. She said that the party would fail to achieve its ambitious electoral target of “400 paar”.

“BJP is claiming that it will win 400 seats, but people are saying it will not happen. The entire country has understood that the BJP is a party full of thieves. We (TMC) will support the INDIA bloc from outside to form a government at the Centre. We will extend our support so that in (West) Bengal, our mothers and sisters never face a problem… and those who work in the 100 days’ job scheme, also do not face problems,” the Chief Minister said.
