G-23 leaders question Congress alliance partners in Bengal
The Hindu
As senior Congress leaders Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and Anand Sharma sparred over the party’s choice of allies in West Bengal, the party on Tuesday urged everyone to come together to take on the BJP in the upcoming elections.
On Monday, Mr Sharma had attacked the party’s decision to ally with the Indian Secular Front (ISF) and its founder, Abbas Siddiqui of Furfura Sharief, saying it militates against the Congress’ ideology. A member of the dissenting group of 23 (G-23) Congress leaders, Mr Sharma termed the presence of West Bengal Pradesh Congress Committee (WBPCC) at a joint rally with Mr. Siddique as ‘shameful’.
