At the same time, efforts are also being made to unite the opposition to stop the ruling BJP. In this sequence, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has called a meeting of the opposition in Patna on Friday (June 23).
The statement of TMC chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamta Banerjee has come to the fore. They said, "There is a meeting tomorrow. Whatever discussion will happen will be good. We have to save the country from disaster." At the same time, TMC spokesperson Riju Dutta has said that party chief and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee are going to the opposition meeting for the country and to save democracy.

‘Good start before Lok Sabha elections’
On the other hand, according to the report of The Hindu, TMC has described the opposition meeting as a good start before the Lok Sabha elections. Rajya Sabha MP from TMC Derek O’ Brian said, “It’s a good start. All parties will be at one place to save the constitution of the country. For now we have a date, a place and an agreement that heads of all parties will attend this meeting.”
He further said, “After this the date and place will be decided in Patna only. Besides, it is not fair for anyone to speculate.” According to news agency PTI, TMC leader Sukhendu Shekhar Roy says that the aim in the meeting should be to ensure that opposition unity takes shape at the earliest as there is less than a year left for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
These leaders will be included in the opposition meeting
There is also a possibility of former Congress President Rahul Gandhi attending the opposition meeting called by Bihar Chief Minister and JDU President Nitish Kumar in Patna. Also, Mamata Banerjee is arriving with her nephew Abhishek Banerjee.
