Attention please, there are reports in media that the key UPA ally, the Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress [TMC] may pull out its cabinet ministers and give outside support to the ruling part of the country.

The party may take back its complete support from the UPA govt, if the govt don’t roll-back the hike in diesel prices ans FDI in multi-brand retail before its 72-hour deadline ends on Tuesday.

Earlier, the chief of Trinamool Congress, Mamata Banerjee has set a 72-hour deadline for the ruling party demanding a rollback of increased fuel prices and FDI in aviation and demanding lower price of LPG cylinders.

In a party rally in Kolkata, Mamata Banerjee said that the ruling party of the country, UPA, did not consult her before taking a decision to increase the prices of diesel and LPG cylinders.

However, the central government has refuted Mamata’s claims. Talking to media, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said that all the supporting parties including TMC, knew about the refoms.

On the other hand, the Left, the Samajwadi Party (SP), the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Janata Dal Secular (JDS) has already called to protest on September 20 against the refoms.
