Mamata’s car halted suddenly to avoid a collision with vehicle
West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee suffered injury after her car halted suddenly to avoid a collision with vehicle, as per a PTI report.
Earlier in the day, Banerjee announced that her party has decided to go alone in the state in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. “I had given them (Congress) a proposal (on seat-sharing), but they refused it at the outset. Our party has now decided to go alone in Bengal,” Banerjee said amid the seat-negotiation tussle between the Congress and the TMC.
The CM also refuted media reports of seat-sharing talks, and asserted that she has not spoken to anyone in the Congress on the issue.
Now, we have decided that there is no relation with the Congress in Bengal, she said. According to sources, the TMC’s offer of two seats to the grand old party based on its 2019 Lok Sabha election performance, triggered tension among them, as the arrangement was deemed insufficient.
