"We demand immediate withdrawal of the Land Ordinance. This is anti-farmer and anti-constitutional. We are protesting against it," Left Front Chairman Biman Bose said while addressing the rally.
"Remove BJP and save the country from communalism and neo-liberalism. Remove TMC and save Bengal from corruption and terrorism," Bose said.
The rally, which witnessed a big turnout, started from Mahajati Sadan in north Kolkata to Rani Rasmoni road in the central part.
The rally came as a sort of morale-booster for the Left which suffered a string of electoral reverses recently.
"They are fighting here and have a friendship in Delhi; the less we talk about them the better," Bose said.
