TMC slams Assam CM for 'red carpet' remark, calls him 'dal badlu'

The Trinamool Congress(TMC) party did  not like the Assam CM's reported 'red carpet' comment against West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. TMC slamed Himanta Biswa Sarma and labelled him him a ''dal badlu'' (party hopper). The party leader Saugata Roy said , he give no importance to what he says. He became Chief Minister after replacing Sarbananda Sonowal, who is a very good man. He left Congress because Tarun Gogoi became the Chief Minister. "Under his government, Assam police personnel died in the Mizoram border dispute, Dimasa rebels kill truck drivers. The situation in Assam is grave. He shouldn't comment on West Bengal, and instead, look after his own state. TMC will go to Assam...," he added.TMC hopes to do well in Assam in the future," Roy said.

Sarma on Sunday said that he would roll out a red carpet welcome for Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee during her possible visit to Assam, adding that her visit will help BJP in the elections as more votes will get divided between Congress and TMC. During his visit to Siliguri in West Bengal, Sarma  said that it will be beneficial for us(BJP) if she visits Assam and Tripura as the votes will be divided between Congress and TMC.
