Trinamul Congress chairperson Mamata Banerjee said on Friday that her party would retain power in the 2026 Assembly elections.
In an interview to a private television channel, Miss Banerjee said: "The people of the state have supported the various schemes taken by the state government and so they will support us during the Assembly election."
While commenting on the recent developments in Bangladesh, she said: "I feel that both the Indian and Bangladesh government should sit and resolve the problems that have cropped up in Bangladesh. The external affairs ministry should make a statement in Parliament which is in session. We have a geographical boundary, but there is no boundary that can separate our minds. I hope that the trouble in Bangladesh will soon be over."
