TMC leader Kunal Ghosh said that Mamta Banerjee has given a clear statement and our party’s attitude is also very clear. TMC will not do any politics on this after Pahalgam and Operation Sindoor. This is the case of the country. We are with the soldiers, with the country, we will all pay tribute together. This is the time when everyone should be united and no politics should be done on whatever stand the central government is taking. This is TMC. Therefore, the proposal being brought in our assembly will be in support of our soldiers and will be against anti -national terrorist forces. We do not want to do any party politics on this.
