A month after TMC’s victory in the Assembly polls, Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is aiming to play a bigger role in the national politics and challenge the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha Election.
To achieve this, the TMC chief has directed her lieutenants to corner the BJP-led Central government on various policy issues and Covid handling.
According to leaders who were present at a TMC meeting Saturday, Banerjee’s nephew, Abhishek Banerjee, who was appointed national general secretary will concentrate on national politics along with TMC MPs. A senior TMC leader said, “Didi clearly said in the meeting that the party should focus on the upcoming Lok Sabha election.”
