 TMC sends Luizinho Faleiro to Rajyasabha

Must Read

The Trinamool Congress (TMC), which is aiming to make inroads in Goa, has nominated former state Chief Minister Luizinho Faleiro to Parliament’s upperhouse, Rajya Sabha.

The TMC, which now rules only West Bengal, has put up a tweet that reads, “We are extremely pleased to nominate @luizinhofaleiro to the Upper House of the Parliament. We are confident that his efforts towards serving the nation shall be appreciated widely by our people!”

Faleiro, a former Congress leader, joined the TMC, headed by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, in late September.

Beginning his new stint in the TMC, which is in an expansion mode, Faleiro gave a call for an unification of all Congress offshoots to take on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is ruling the Centre and majority of the states.

After wresting power in West Bengal for the third consecutive term in 2021, the TMC has activated its organisation in a few small states including Goa, where Banerjee’s outfit is aiming to contest the upcoming assembly polls next year.

Earlier in the year, the TMC had nominated Sushmita Dev, who is also a former Congress leader, to the Rajya Sabha.
