Congress hopes to find 'middle path' in Bengal as fissures widen in INDIA bloc

In some states, the allies are in a "very good fix" and will announce the seats at an appropriate time, Congress's communications chief Jairam Ramesh said.

Ramesh said that Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge has "established contact" with Banerjee and as "she always said she wants to defeat the BJP, that's what gives us hope that we can find a middle path... We are hopeful that INDIA bloc will fight in an alliance in Bengal".

Ramesh's comments came two days after Banerjee declared that her party will go solo in West Bengal and claimed that the Congress has rejected her offer of two seats.
