The Trinamool Congress on Tuesday nominated its National General Secretary to represent the party in the parliamentary delegations being sent abroad to reiterate India’s position on Operation Sindoor.

This came a day after the party declined to participate in the process, saying that it had not been consulted before its MP Yusuf Pathan was made part of one of the delegations.

The deadlock was resolved after Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister to Trinamool Congress chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, after which she proposed the name of Abhishek Banerjee, The Indian Express reported.

The Trinamool Congress that “at a time when the world must unite to confront the growing threat of terrorism, Abhishek Banerjee’s inclusion brings both conviction and clarity to the table”.

The presence of the Diamond Harbour MP “will not only reflect Bengal’s firm stand against terror but also strengthen India’s collective voice on the global stage”, the statement added.
