Waited for 8 months to finalise seat-sharing: Abhishek

West Bengal, Jan 29: Senior Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Abhishek Banerjee on Monday attributed the differences in opposition bloc INDIA in West Bengal to Congress party’s failure to finalise seat-sharing arrangements.
Banerjee highlighted that despite repeated reminders over the last eight months, the Congress remained inactive in sealing the seat-sharing agreement.
The TMC national general secretary slammed West Bengal Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury for playing into the hands of the saffron camp and repeatedly attacking the TMC government in West Bengal, despite being an ally at the national level.
The Diamond Harbour MP, who is also the nephew of Mamata Banerjee, slammed Chowdhury for “demanding President’s Rule in the state,” echoing the demands of the BJP.
“By demanding President’s Rule, whose interest is the state Congress president trying to serve – the TMC, the Congress or the BJP? There is a limit to our patience,” he said. (PTI)
