In balancing act, Congress warns Bengal unit, then Kharge praises Adhir Ranjan

NEW DELHI: A day after party president Mallikarjun Kharge’s posters outside the Bengal Congress office in Kolkata were defaced, the Congress leadership in Delhi on Monday sought a factual report on the vandalisation of the posters and statements made against Kharge in the state. Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has been a long-time critic of the party allying with the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress at any level “We are taking a very serious note of such grave anti-party activities. the Indian National Congress shall not tolerate such public display of defiance and indiscipline,” a statement by Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said, citing the vandalisation of the posters and “uncharitable remarks” made in the media and on social media against party chief Kharge. “A written complaint has also been duly informed by the West Bengal Pradesh Congress Committee yesterday at Entally Police Station demanding a thorough investigation into this scandalous incident and the arrest of the real criminals involved in this,” the state unit said in a statement on X, formerly Twitter. The incident took a day after Kharge on Saturday snubbed Bengal Congress chief Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, who had previously claimed that TMC chief Mamata Banerjee’s loyalty to the Opposition’s INDIA bloc could not be trusted and that she might go with the Bharatiya Janata Party.
