Mamata’s 2024 Formula: Will Cong Contest Only 242 Seats?
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has put forth a significant proposition for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, suggesting that the Congress party should contest only 242 seats, leaving the remainder to be contested by regional parties. This proposal was made during a meeting of opposition leaders in Delhi on May 25, aimed at exploring the possibility of forming a united front to counter the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming general elections.
