“We have seen news reports that the TMC wants the Congress and the other parties to fight together against the issue of demonetisation. But, It would be wrong to conclude that we need to share the dais with it because we both are opposing the issue,” senior Congress leader Somen Mitra said here. A few days back, state Congress chief Adhir Chowdhury had mocked the TMC’s “crusade” against demonetisation by saying those who lived in glass houses should not throw stones. We have seen how, on camera, TMC leaders were accepting money. The opposition front against the BJP can only be led by a national party such as the Congress,” a senior Congress leader said.
