As India inches towards fresh general elections in 2024, there is a wind of change in the political landscape.

Amid efforts by the Trinamool Congress to expand its influence nationally, especially in the northeast, after it held of a massive BJP attempt to dethrone it West Bengal in the 2021 elections has raised questions whether it can replicate its ...

Buffeted by two conflicting targets — forging Opposition unity to take on the ruling BJP and save its own ship — Congress is increasingly finding itself as a target of regional parties, some of whom are keen to take the lead Opposition role ahead of 2024 general elections.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is trying to turn Congress to Congress (M) by inducing and alluring Congress leaders ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, senior Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury alleged on Saturday. In an interview with The Indian Express, Chowdhury said Banerjee is becoming an "instrument of Modi’s hold on power."

Gandhis -- Sonia, Rahul, and Priyanka -- and Prashant Kishor have mutually agreed to discuss the poll strategist’s formal entry in the Congress after the conclusion of five rounds of Assembly polls in Punjab, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Goa and Manipur.

But the fallout of these skirmishes within the opposition camp, and the TMC's new adventurism in states where it has no existence, like in Goa, can be manifold.

Even as Opposition parties were trying to corner the BJP over the Lakhimpur Kheri violence collectively, a bitter Twitter war has erupted between Congress and TMC.
