The TMC has earned the trust of the people across the country after its resounding victory against the BJP in the assembly polls held in the state earlier this year, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said.
As the Congress has miserably failed to put up a fight against the BJP, the people of India have put the onus on the Trinamool Congress to create a new India by ousting the "fascist" saffron party, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee claimed.
The TMC has earned the trust of the people across the country after its resounding victory against the BJP in the assembly polls held in the state earlier this year, Ms Banerjee asserted in an article titled "Dilli r Daak (Call of Delhi) in the puja edition of the party mouthpiece "Jago Bangla".
"The BJP has failed to digest its defeat in the assembly polls and is pursuing vendetta politics. Right now, there is a new challenge before the TMC - the call of Delhi. The people of this country want respite from the anti-people policies and politics and defeat of the fascist forces," she said in the article.
After defeating the BJP in the assembly polls, Ms Banerjee visited Delhi in July and held parleys with opposition leaders to explore ways to cobble together an alliance of anti-BJP parties ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
