CPI-M general secretary Sitaram Yechury on Friday said Mamata Banerjee would come back to power with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) if the results of the West Bengal assembly elections were frozen, meaning no party could get a majority. . Responding to Mamata’s allegation that the left wing is the BJP’s ‘B team’, she called it a fictitious thought and said the TMC was doing the same.
In an India Today program, Yechury noted the alliance between the BJP and the TMC from 1990 to 2000, “Who brought the BJP to Bengal?” That’s TMC and Madame. He never hesitated to go with the BJP. ”
“If there is a Hung Assembly, what the Trinamool Congress does, people know,” Yechury said. Explaining this, he said the TMC would make a deal with the BJP so that it would remain the chief minister post. Having lost the election in Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh, Yechury said, “It is common knowledge that whoever wins the election, the government will form the BJP”.
