Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury accused West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee for weakening the position of Congress in Goa. On Banerjee's recent comment, he said, “Not right to respond to a mad person. Congress has 700 MLAs across India. Does Didi have it? Congress has 20 per cent of Opposition's total vote share. Does she have it? She is saying this to please BJP and act as its agent. She says things like this to stay relevant.”

“Why are you making remarks against Congress? If Congress didn't exist, then people like Mamata Banerjee would not have been born. She should remember this. They went to Goa to please BJP, they made Congress lose. You weakened Congress in Goa, everyone knows this,” Chowdhury added.
