Rahul, Kharge, Mamata and PM Modi.
NITI Aayog meeting was held in Delhi under the chairmanship of PM Narendra Modi, what happened in the meeting? What decisions were made? What did the Chief Ministers of various states present in the meeting say? There was very little discussion about this. Apart from India Alliance’s stand, among the opposition party-ruled states, only West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee attended the meeting and boycotted the meeting, alleging that she was not given time to speak.
Mamata Banerjee’s boycott brought her into the limelight and was in the headlines throughout the day. Political speculation has started about Mamata Banerjee attending the meeting and then boycotting it, despite opposition from the India Alliance.
Questions are being raised whether the target of Mamata Banerjee was the Modi government or the Indian coalition led by Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge or whether Mamata Banerjee killed two birds with one stone. He also raised his voice against the Modi government and also showed the strength of the India alliance.

Mamata showed a mirror to India in the election
During the Lok Sabha elections, Mamata Banerjee’s party, which looked like a mirror to the Indian coalition, fought the BJP single-handedly and won 29 out of 42 seats, proving its sole supremacy in Bengal. Mamata Banerjee had shown her position to the BJP as well as the India Alliance parties Congress and CPI(M), but as soon as the elections were over, she rejoined the India Alliance and started raising her voice against the BJP and announced her departure with the India Alliance.
TMC’s Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha leaders Sudeep Bandopadhyay and Derek O’Brien are attending the India Alliance meeting on Parliament proceedings. It was decided to boycott the July 29 meeting of the India Alliance over the general budget, but Mamata Banerjee created a stir in political circles by deciding to attend the India Alliance meeting.
Questions were raised regarding Mamata’s presence in the meeting
After that, questions started to arise whether Mamata is taking a soft stance by attending the NITI Aayog meeting? Mamata’s closeness with PM Modi is increasing again? It was appealed from the Congress that none of the CMs of the Indian alliance were present in the meeting. Hence Mamata also did not attend, but Mamata Banerjee said that if this information had been given earlier, her decision would have been different and she attended the meeting. By attending the meeting you killed two birds with one stone. He is now at the center of discussion in Delhi politics.
Let us tell you that seven chief ministers of the opposition coalition boycotted the meeting. Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren, Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann and Tamil Nadu CM Stalin were also not present in this meeting. Mamata Banerjee attended the meeting only as the CM of the opposition alliance, but was muted when she complained in the middle of the meeting. She wanted to talk about the protests. He mentioned the discrimination in the budget. But, was not allowed to say. Mic is off. So she left the meeting.
Mamata’s strategy got the Bharat coalition trapped
Only after Mamata Banerjee boycotted the seat, there was a stir in Delhi politics. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman rejected Mamata Banerjee’s allegation that her mic was off. PIB issued a fact check release accusing Mamata of misleading. Despite the Centre’s arguments, Mamata remained at the center of discussion in Delhi politics throughout the day.
Leaders say that the Chief Minister of Bengal has killed two birds with one stone. While attending the Niti Aayog meeting, he said that the Center is depriving the opposition states. By attending the meeting, she tried to convey the message that she is part of the India alliance and raising her voice against the BJP’s discriminatory politics.
Stalin came in support of Mamata, targeted Adhir
Mamata gave a message to the people of Bengal that as Chief Minister she has gone to take up the demands of the state. But, BJP is against Bengal. Bengalis cannot speak because of the discriminatory behavior of the BJP-led central government. With his stand, he also sent a message to the Indian alliance and the Congress that the Trinamool Congress cannot be ignored. Ignoring Mamata Banerjee in particular will prove costly. By attending the meeting, he demonstrated how to protest.
After Mamata Banerjee’s protest, Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin’s statement came and he criticized the Modi government for its behavior against Mamata Banerjee. There were statements from leaders of other opposition parties, including the AAP, but neither Rahul Gandhi nor Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge gave any statement from the Congress. Only the statements of Congress leaders Rajiv Shukla and Jairam Ramesh came and they condemned it. Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary directly accused Mamata Banerjee of lying and that this was her earlier script. Mamata acted accordingly.
The TMC also raised hurdles in the election of the Speaker.
Even before this, Mamata Banerjee’s party has questioned the dominance of Congress in Bharat Gatbandhan. He raised questions on the Congress leadership. During the election for the post of speaker in the Lok Sabha, when the India Alliance announced the nomination of eight-time Congress candidate K Suresh against the Congress-led NDA candidate Om Birla, the TMC objected and said it had no one. Consent was not taken. Later, due to pressure from the Trinamool Congress and the Samajwadi Party, there was no demand for vote counting during the Speaker election and the Speaker was elected by voice vote.
Mamata-Akhilesh were united in the Kolkata meeting
A few days ago, Mamata Banerjee organized a big rally in Kolkata on the occasion of TMC Martyrs Day on 21st July. Only Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav participated in this rally on behalf of India Alliance. Through this rally, Mamata Banerjee tried to send a message to the Congress that there is a separate alliance in Bharat Gatbandhan and no decision can be taken ignoring the two big parties SP and Trinamool and if any decision is taken it will be. There will be opposition.
