West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on Tuesday that the day people find a viable alternative, the BJP will be ousted from power.
Banerjee said her party should form that alternative force along with other opposition camps.
Addressing the party’s organizational meeting, he said, “BJP is still in power as there is no alternative. The day there is one, it will be removed.”
Banerjee, who was re-elected as the party’s president last month, formed a new state committee, mostly packed with her loyalists.
The development came amid an alleged power struggle in the party between the old leaders and the next generation leaders. The TMC boss re-appointed Subrata Bakshi as the party’s state president and Partha Chatterjee as general secretary.
Banerjee also appointed about 20 vice-presidents, including former state finance minister Amit Mitra and 19 state general secretaries. TMC’s political advisor Prashant Kishor was also present at the event and was seen sharing the stage with other senior party leaders.
