New Delhi: Trinamool Congress chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee took a dig on BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Wednesday, saying, “Gujarat’s leader has a communal face”.
The West Bengal chief minister unveiled her party’s national agenda with a rally at Delhi’s Ramlila Maidan. Social activist Anna Hazare, who was also supposed to be a part of the rally, missed the event as he was unwell.
Mamata said she did not care who turned up and who did not. "Whether somebody supports us or not, we are going to shake up Delhi."
“We have started from Bengal, but do not forget that Delhi too is my state, so is Punjab, so is Maharashta…”
“I don’t want individual power. I want people to be empowered. We won’t allow the people to be bulldozed,” she added.
Mamata , who left the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) coalition government in September 2012, added, “Whether it is the BJP, Congress or the CPM, they enjoy and sell the country. We cannot spend money like the rich, but we can fulfil promises.”
