Trinamool Congress (TMC)'s efforts to make inroads at the national level are a cause of concern for the Congress. TMC under the leadership of Mamta Banerjee is continuously ignoring the Congress. Be it opposition meetings or distance from Congress-led events, the Trinamool has made its intention clear. The leadership of the opposition in the hands of the Congress is not acceptable to him. Mamta is constantly meeting leaders of other opposition parties and throwing her dice. She was in Delhi last days.During this, he kept distance from Congress leaders.
Mamta is in Mumbai for three days since Tuesday. Here he is scheduled to meet Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray and NCP veteran Sharad Pawar. However, later news came that Uddhav would not be able to meet Mamta due to ill health. In talks with Pawar, how to counter the BJP, it will definitely be discussed. But the question of lakhs of rupees is that how easy is it for Trinamool Congress to become an alternative to Congress?
Shiv Sena and NCP have formed Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) in Maharashtra along with Congress. Mamta's meeting with the leaders of the two parties of this alliance is fixed, but only with the Congress. Amidst the growing distance between TMC and Congress, if Mamta meets the other two parties of MVA, the message will be clear. TMC is in constant contact with the opposition parties except Congress, Left.
Mamta was in Delhi last week. On Wednesday (November 24), she made it clear that she would not meet Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi. After meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, journalists questioned him about meeting Sonia. The reply came, 'This time I had only sought time from the Prime Minister. All the leaders are busy with Punjab elections. Work first. Why do we meet Sonia every time? It is not a constitutional obligation.The relations between Mamta and Sonia have been warm, but in recent times the relationship between both the parties has become tense.
