"Will Support Congress, But...": Mamata Banerjee On Opposition Unity

This is the first time that Mamata Banerjee cleared the air on Trinamool's stand on a possible strategy for opposition unity in the electoral battle ahead.

West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee on Monday said her party will support the Congress where it is strong in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

This is the first time that Ms Banerjee cleared the air on Trinamool's stand on a possible strategy for opposition unity in the electoral battle ahead.

"Wherever the Congress is strong, let them fight. We will give them support, there is nothing wrong (in that). But they have to support other political parties also," Ms Banerjee told reporters at the state secretariat.

However, to get support, Congress also has to back other parties, she said.
