"Let me first state that the TMC very much was, is and will be part of the INDIA alliance. This is a fight between BJP and democracy, a fight between Modi guarantee and zero warranty," said TMC MP Derek O'Brien, addressing the INDIA bloc's 'Loktantra Bachao' rally at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi.

However, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee attacked INDIA bloc partner Congress during her Lok Sabha election rally in Naida today. She said that voting for Congress is indirectly voting for the BJP. 

"Congress is contesting the elections in alliance with the Left here. Voting for them means voting for BJP. BJP is saying that it will get 400 seats. If that is so, then why are ED and CBI being used? BJP will lose badly in Bengal. CAA and NRC will not be implemented in Bengal," said the West Bengal CM at a rally in Naida.

Meanwhile, opposition leaders kept pouring in at the INDIA bloc rally held at the capital's Ramlila Maidan on Sunday to protest against the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the Delhi liquor policy case.
