TMC Upbeat About Being Recognised Soon As A National Party

Encouraged by its performance in the just-held Manipur Assembly elections, the Trinamool Congress said it was moving closer to being recognised as a national party.

To become a national party, a political outfit has to get recognised as a state party in at least four states and the TMC has earned that tag in three states, Mukul Roy, all India general secretary of the party, said.

“We are moving towards becoming a national party.After Manipur, the Trinamool Congress has the distinction of being recognised as a state party in three states, the other two being West Bengal and Arunachal Pradesh,” Roy, a close aide of Mamata Banerjee, told PTI.
