'Tipping point to join TMC was attack on Mamata in Nandigram': Yashwant Sinha

Former BJP leader Yashwant Sinha joined TMC ahead of the high-stakes Bengal elections.

Sinha said the tipping point to join TMC was when Mamata Banerjee was attacked in Nandigram.

“The tipping point to join TMC was the attack on Mamata ji in Nandigram.

It was the moment of decision to join TMC and support Mamata ji,” he said.

The Bengal CM, who was admitted to SSKM Hospital in Kolkata, was discharged on March 12.

Mamata fell and suffered injuries after she was allegedly pushed by 4-5 unidentified people on March 10.

The TMC chief was on two-day visit to Purba Medinipur to file her nomination and campaign.

Maharashtra Results 2024: Voters Weigh Hindutva Against Vikas in BJP Win, Shinde or Fadnavis as CM?

As the BJP celebrates its victory in Maharashtra, voters have spoken loud and clear about what drove the win. Was it the party’s focus on Hindutva, or the emphasis on development (Vikas)? With the outcome favouring the BJP, the question now remains: who will take the reins as Chief Minister – Eknath Shinde, the current leader, or Devendra Fadnavis, the former CM with a significant political presence? The dynamic between Hindutva and Vikas played a crucial role in shaping the electorate’s decision, with many voters citing these two factors as central to their choice. As Maharashtra's political landscape shifts, the future of its leadership hangs in the balance. #MaharashtraElectionResult #MaharashtraElection2024 #ElectionResultLive #MaharashtraElectionResults2024 #AssemblyElectionResults #MaharashtraAssemblyElectionResult #LiveElectionResult #MaharashtraResultsLive #ElectionResults2024 #MaharashtraPolls2024 #LiveResultsMaharashtra #MaharashtraAssemblyResults #ElectionResultUpdates #MaharashtraVotes2024 #AssemblyPollsResults ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.103~GR.344~
