Kolkata, 19/4:West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is best suited to lead the opposition front in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, while a section of Congress leaders is more interested in fighting among themselves instead of taking on the BJP, Trinamool Congress leader Ripun Bora claimed on Tuesday.
Bora, the former president of Congress’ Assam unit who joined the TMC on Sunday, alleged that several leaders of the Congress were working in connivance with the BJP in the North Eastern state.
“The BJP is a threat to the Constitution, democracy, and moreover to our country’s economy,” he told PTI in an interview.
“The Congress being the grand old party, should have led the fight against the BJP. But unfortunately, its leaders in various states are fighting against each other rather than fighting the BJP,” he said.
