West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Sunday greeted former Congress president Sonia Gandhi on her 72nd birthday and prayed for the senior Congress leaders long life and happiness.
Trinamool Congress sources said Banerjee is likely to leave for New Delhi in the afternoon and meet Sonia Gandhi later in the day.
My best wishes on your birthday Sonia Gandhi Ji. I pray for your long life and happiness in all you do, Banerjee tweeted.
In the national capital, Banerjee is likely to meet leaders of political parties opposed to the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) for talks on the proposed joint front for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
