Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders staged a protest on Thursday here at the Gandhi statue in the Parliament complex over demonetisation.

"Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has miserably failed and West Bengal is particularly the worst victim," TMC leader Sudip Bandyopadhyay told ANI.

"RBI Governor Urjit Patel is in Kolkata and I came to know he is not entering through the main entrance of RBI but entering from the back door to avoid media. He must interact with the media, he should talk to the media, he should come out. The role of the RBI in this case could not rise to the occasion and Patel cannot escape from the present situation and responsibility," he added.(ANI)

The West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had earlier marched to the Reserve Bank of India office, summon its officials on the road and give information on the currency situation in the state.
