Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday (June 7, 2025) for not giving credit to previous governments for the Chenab rail bridge, and also mentioned the work done during party supremo Mamata Banerjee's tenure as Railway Minister.
In a series of posts on X, TMC leaders Derek O'Brien and Sagarika Ghose said former Prime Ministers Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh should also be given credit for the rail bridge.

"That Narendra Modi waved the flag at inauguration of Chenab Rail Bridge without a word for the hardworking public servants who came before him — PMs Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh and most importantly Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee who actually sanctioned and laid the groundwork for the project is so typically Modi — delusional, narcissistic, self-promoting, non-serious," Ms. Ghose said.
"This kind of jealous credit grabbing is unprecedented in India. Most unfortunate," she added.
