'BJP govt may collapse before 2029': Mamata pushes for Oppn unity
Hindustan Times Bengaluru
|November 27, 2025
West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee called for opposition unity while claiming that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will not return to power after the 2029 Lok Sabha polls and that the government at the centre may even collapse before that.
“There is no neutrality in the country. It is totally one sided. Those who are in power today, will not remain tomorrow. They shall by no chance return to power in 2029. They may fall even before,” Banerjee told reporters on Wednesday.
“They will offer you ₹10,000 before an election and will loot you entirely after coming to power. This is BJP. Jhoot aur loot (lie and loot). This is what is going on in the country. We have to unite against this,” she said.
“Central agencies have sent us (TMC leaders) 400 notices. Many more will come. They may send us 40 million notices. We will still fight,” the CM added.
