After Congress's defeat in the Assembly elections in five states recently, TMC MP Saugata Roy on March 12, said that the BJP has become stronger because Congress has become weaker as an opposition. “Congress party is very weak. They don't have any seats in West Bengal Assembly. They lost the Punjab elections also. They should introspect. TMC has a stronghold in West Bengal but it seems that Congress doesn't have any stronghold anywhere,” said Saugata Roy.
