The Congress on Tuesday hit out at the TMC asking it to introspect whether it was strengthening the BJP by giving it covering fire or trying to carve out a space for itself in Goa.

The Congress reaction came as the Trinamool Congress gears up to launch an aggressive poll campaign for the forthcoming Assembly elections in Goa with the visit of Mamata Banerjee later this week. 

The Congress reminded the TMC that elections were not “tourism.”

Congress communication department head Randeep Surjewala said that while some of the other Opposition parties crumbled under pressure, the Congress is the “only political party” which had been fighting the BJP and the Narendra Modi government’s policies for the last seven years.
 
  
Senior Congress leaders like Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury had been criticising the Trinamool Congress for focusing on Goa, but on Tuesday the party officially questioned the TMC’s move.
