TMC to strengthen organisation in areas where BJP has made

The Trinamool Congress has decided to stress on strenghtening its organisational capabilities in areas where BJP has made inroads in the May panchayat polls in West Bengal.

"Steps have already been taken to strenghten our organisation in areas where BJP has made some gains. All the gaps in the organisation in the grass root level will be covered before the 2019 election," a TMC leader said.

Jyotipriyo Mullick, a senior TMC leader, accused BJP of trying to gain foothold in the state by dividing the people along religious and caste lines.

Mullick, who is also the state food minister said, "The dirty tricks department of BJP is at work. But they won't succeed in Bengal as long as TMC is in the state. We will never allow BJP to divide Bengal on religious lines."
