Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Kharge's ULTIMATUM To Adhir Ranjan On Mamata: 'Those Who Won’t Follow, Will Be Out Of The Party'

With the election season getting intense everyday, the war of words is leaving many jaws dropped. Garnering a lot of heat is none other than the Congress party president Mallikarjun Kharge, who has now given an explosive ultimatum to Adhir Ranjan.  

Speaking on the matter, Mallikarjun Kharge said at a press conference in Mumbai, “(West Bengal CM) Mamata Banerjee has said that she will support the INDIA alliance (government) from outside. As far as Congress leader Adhir Ranjan’s remark is concerned, he is no one to decide anything. The top leaders and high command will decide that and those who won’t follow the same will be out of the party.”

Actually, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury had targeted the statement of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in which she had said that if the INDIA alliance forms the government, then TMC will provide external support.

BJP's Watching 

Reacting on the inter-party heat in the Congress camp, the official handle of BJP posted, "It's high time the West Bengal Pradesh Congress spokespersons stop their pathetic shadowboxing against TMC and start addressing TMC's endless scams—from recruitment fraud to cattle smuggling—on Bengali TV shows. If not, they face the same fate as Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, ousted and humiliated."
