Congress is presiding over the second meeting
The second meeting of the opposition parties is being held under the leadership of the Congress. This meeting was earlier to be held in Shimla, but due to bad weather the place was changed. Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has organized a dinner for opposition parties in Bengaluru on July 17 and a meeting will be held on July 18. Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi will also participate in this meeting.
Mamta Banerjee will also attend the meeting
All the main opposition leaders are going to attend this meeting. There was doubt about TMC Chief and West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee attending the meeting, but now she will also attend the meeting. News agency PTI quoted TMC sources as saying that Mamata Banerjee will not attend the opposition dinner on July 17 as she has to follow the post-surgery protocol, but she will attend the meeting of opposition parties on July 18.
