The TMC State General Secretary also stated that West Bengal is a democratic state and Congress can hold a programme for their party but TMC is a party having a strong base in the Bengal politics.
"This is a democratic state and Congress is a different party so it is their right. They can hold a programme for their party. Rahul Gandhi will come and conduct the programme, but Congress leaders should remember the baseline of Bengal politics.

So, from this ground, TMC is leading the battle against the BJP and Rahul Gandhi must remember it," Kunal Ghosh told ANI.
