The 13-page manifesto, released by state Congress president Adhir Chowdhury this evening, stated that the party's resolution was to oust the ruling Trinamool Congress government.
Alleging that TMC in the state and the BJP government at the Centre "have reached an understanding to help and support each other", the Congress manifesto promised "speedy investigation into Saradha and other chit fund scams" besides, investigations into the TET recruitment scam of 2011.
