‘Not local level elections’: Cong's reply to INDIA ally Mamata's ‘40 seats’ barb

Hindustan Times  

The Congress on Saturday responded to West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee's jibe saying she doubted if the grand old party would win even 40 seats in the upcoming Lok Sabha election. Banerjee even dared the Congress to defeat the BJP in Uttar Pradesh, including in Varanasi, which is represented by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha. TMC and Congress, both members of the opposition INDIA bloc, have been locking horns over seat sharing in West Bengal for the Lok Sabha elections, whose dates are yet to be announced. Mamata Banerjee has already announced her decision to contest the elections alone, even declaring she will not share a single seat with INDIA allies Congress as well as Communist Party of India.
