Will Narendra Modi resign if things remain unsolved: Mamta

TIL Desk/National/Kolkata/ Calling demonetisation the biggest scam post independence, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday asked if Prime Minister Narendra Modi will resign at the end of 50 days if things do not improve. Addressing a joint press conference by several opposition parties here, Banerjee, also the Trinamool Congress supremo, said demonetisation decision was “illegal” and “unconstitutional” and has set the economy 20 years back.

“Modi, you had asked for 50 days time, people were losing livlihood, dying due to starvation, yet they gave you that time. Now 47 days are over, and only three days left,” said Banerjee referring to Modi’s 50-day deadline nearing its end. “We will wait for the next three days. But Modi, if things remain unsolved, will you take the responsibility and resign as the Prime Minister of the country,” she asked.

“In the name of demonetisation you have plundered the entire country, over 10 crore people have been rendered unemployed. You have looted money from the poor to give relief to the corporates who have created huge nonperforming assets for the banks. “GDP has sustained huge losses, the economy has set back by 20 years. This is a mega scam, the biggest scam after independence,” she said adding that the opposition parties will make a common minimum programme over its demonetisation protests.
