Mamata bid to project self as INDIA chief 'mere posturing': Congress

IndiaTimes Saturday, 7 December 2024
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's offer to lead the INDIA alliance has been met with silence from the Congress party. Congress sources suggest Banerjee's statement is viewed as political posturing amid internal party challenges and a perceived power struggle with her nephew. The Congress, not a TMC ally in West Bengal, sees no immediate threat from Banerjee's remarks.
