West Bengal: Kolkata turns into ‘city of dharnas’ as CM Mamata Banerjee stages sit-in against Union govt
Mamata asked state education minister Bratya Basu to open the ‘recruitment scam’ during the Left Front era.
The ‘City of Joy’ became the ‘city of dharnas’ on Wednesday after almost all the political parties took to streets protesting against each other. West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee, who is staging a 2-day dharna against the Centre, claimed, if required, she would demonstrate outside the PM’s house for the poor.
“The BJP will not return to power in 2024 no matter how much you (BJP) shout. The opposition parties must unite to oust it from the power. All the parties are tormented by the BJP and some maintain silence as they are afraid of central agencies. When the NDA was formed there were 17 parties and now 16 parties have left the alliiance. In UP and MP, it can get votes but even we will join hands with Akhilesh Yadav in UP. The fight is between the citizens and the BJP, and the citizens are leaders,” Mamata said.
