Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has convened a meeting of top Opposition leaders as part of his continued efforts to forge a grand alliance against PM Modi and the BJP-led government at the Centre with an eye on the general elections in 2024
While talking to ANI, the TMC leader intensified his attacks on the BJP saying "The saffron colour is a part of our national flag, and it symbolises strength, courage and valour. Who has given BJP the authority over the saffron colour."
War of words has broken out between the BJP and TMC on Twitter over the "saffron" colour after Mamata Banerjee's party leader Riju Dutta shared a purported old video of Union Minister Smriti Irani wherein she is seen walking at 'Femina Miss India 1998' show with the saffron coloured cloth
