Mamata Banerjee-Arvind Kejriwal plan: Congress not surprised, to reject proposal

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 20 December 2023
Mamata Banerjee and Arvind Kejriwal surprised the Opposition bloc by suggesting Mallikarjun Kharge as the convenor/PM candidate, a proposal discussed by five parties including TMC, AAP, Shiv Sena, NCP, and DMK. Congress is clear that it will not accept Kharge's projection, preferring Banerjee or Kumar. The opposition believes a senior dalit leader will consolidate the SC community. Kharge rejected the proposal, emphasizing the need to focus on winning seats. Congress formed a "national alliance committee" to expedite seat-sharing with allies.
