Kolkata, 9th August. The Trinamool Congress welcomed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s decision to leave the BJP-led NDA on Tuesday, saying no ally can protect its identity in the saffron camp because the BJP, with its “grab all politics,” does not believe in the existence of regional parties.
On a day of fast-moving political developments, Nitish Kumar, the leader of the JD(U), split with his ally, the BJP, for the second time in eight years and resigned as NDA chief minister, with the support of the RJD, Congress, and Left Parties.
TMC chief national spokesperson Sukhendu Sekhar Ray said, “No political party in NDA is safe with an alliance partner like the BJP. The BJP does not believe in smaller or regional parties’ existence. Its policy ensures the wiping out of regional parties even if they are their allies. Such a development was waiting to happen.”
He stated that the TMC is paying close attention to the political situation in the neighbouring state.
“In Bihar, we have no political or organisational presence. However, if the BJP is defeated in Bihar, the people of West Bengal will be overjoyed,” he stated.
In reference to the change of guard in Maharashtra, Ray stated that the BJP’s “grab all politics” will lead to its “doom in the coming days.”
