  • 5 years ago
A day ahead of the Trinamool Congress protest rally at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, former Railway Minister and party leader Mukul Roy warned the Centre that their agitation will spark a movement in the country against the UPA government's decisions to allow Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in multi-brand retail, hike diesel prices and put a cap on the number of subsidised LPG cylinders. Trinamool Congress chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and her party MPs would gather at Jantar Mantar to protest against the reforms introduced by the Manmohan Singh government earlier this month. All Trinamool MPs arrived in the national capital by Sunday and are expected to be by Banerjee's side at Jantar Mantar. The Delhi Police has given permission for 5000 people at the venue. The protest comes after Banerjee had announced her decision to pull out from the Congress-led UPA government. The decision also led to the end of the Trinamool-Congress alliance in Banerjee's state.
