The meeting was held at the residence of Congress Chief Mallikarjun Kharge.
Citing the Lok Sabha elections and Cyclone Remal, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that she would not be able to attend the meeting. She said, “The India bloc had earlier said they would hold a meeting on June 1. I told them I couldn’t go as we will still have polls here, like in a few other states. How could I go with cyclones and relief centres on one side and elections on the other?”
Apart from Mamata Banerjee, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin also skipped the INDIA bloc’s meeting today. Instead, DMK’s parliamentary party leader, TR Baalu attended the meeting.
A total of 28 opposition parties have formed a mammoth coalition under the name of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Coalition (INDIA) to face and defeat the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
