Congress keeps alliance door open with TMC in West Bengal until nomination withdrawal. The Congress party has reacted to Trinamool Congress's (TMC) announcement of candidates for all 42 Lok Sabha seats in West Bengal by stating that its doors are open for an alliance until the withdrawal of nominations. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said that any agreement has to be finalized through negotiations, not by unilateral announcements. The Indian National Congress (INC) has consistently sought a respectable seat-sharing agreement with the TMC in West Bengal and emphasized the need for unity against the BJP in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
