Training her guns on the Modi government, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said the people would "not forgive" it for demonetisation and demanded that the Centre withdraw all limits on cash withdrawal immediately.

"I am appealing to the Centre to take back all limits on cash withdrawal immediately. Central government has once again made us dependent despite so many years of Independence. Democratic and political rights are meaningless without financial rights," she said.

Nobody was "touched", but only TMC was targetted because "we protested against demonetisation", Banerjee told reporters here on the last day of her visit to north Bengal.
 

The TMC supremo asserted, "Sudip Bandyopadhyay (TMC leader in the Lok Sabha) is innocent. He has committed no fault. This is political vendetta, nothing else".

"The financial freedom of common people was taken away and they are still suffering due to demonetisation. They are not able to withdraw money from banks," the Chief Minister alleged.
