Malda, Mar 20 (ANI): Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee has expressed confidence that her party would emerge as the third largest party and play a big role in national politics after the Lok Sabha polls.
Taking a dig at Congress, CPI-M and BJP, Banerjee asserted that these parties have formed a syndicate and her party would fight against them and emerge the third largest in the country after the key players.
"We had formed the alliance with Congress in the assembly elections in 2011. CPIM had extended support to Congress to defeat Trinamool Congress and Congress had campaigned for them directly and indirectly. We don't believe in that kind of alliance, we would form an alliance of people," she said, while addressing a rally here yesterday.
The West Bengal Chief Minister further attacked the third front, which is endorsed by 11 regional parties including the left.
She also ridiculed the lack of development in Bengal under the successive governments of the opposition as well as Congress since Independence.
"Since independence only 38 colleges were built in Bengal in all 66 years since independence including 34 years of CPIM regime in the state. The number increased from 35 to 38 during left rule. And during Trinamool period 31 government colleges have been built in state," said Banerjee. (ANI)
