Congress leaders leave Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee “on seen” after she makes an alliance proposal call, multiple reports say. According to these reports, Banerjee dials Congress General Secretary K.C. Venugopal but does not receive a response.
The accounts describe the episode as part of ongoing discussions around seat-sharing or alliance arrangements ahead of a by-election (bypoll). They also report that Congress views the Trinamool Congress as a potential “liability” in a by-election scenario, reflecting differing assessments within Congress about the value of closer coordination with Banerjee’s party.
Across the reporting, the central points are the unanswered call and the characterization of Trinamool’s role in the by-election context. However, outlets vary in emphasis—some focus on the communication breakdown (the call message being left unseen), while others highlight the internal political framing attributed to Congress regarding the Trinamool’s electoral prospects in by-elections. The reports do not indicate any formal agreement or public statement resolving the issue.
