The Trinamool Congress chief also said that farmers have been on the roads for over a year and the Centre has ensured that they are not able to walk on the roads. "This is due to the three syndicates of PM Modi, Amit Shah and Adani. Adani will loot all money and products, only Modi, Shah and Adani will get to eat. The rest of the people can only shed tears," she said.
She also lambasted the Centre for the fuel price hike. "He (PM Modi) promised to provide Rs 15 lakh to everyone. Did he provide? Then no Rs 15 lakhs, no votes for BJP," she remarked.
"They said Beti Padhao Beti Bachao, yet they could not spend a single rupee. Yet our government provides scholarships of Rs 1000-2500 to girls," she added.
