Lalu flays mishandling of demonetization as Mamata talks to him





Patna,(BiharTimes): Breaking his silence RJD chief Lalu Prasad on Sunday dubbed the Narendra Modi government’s move to demonetize Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes as “farzi-cal strike”, meaning fake (farzi) strike.

Lalu tweeted in Hindi on Sunday: “Modi must assure the nation that the people would get the promised Rs 15 to Rs 20 lakh in their bank account after Modi is over with the 50 days of his deadline for ending corruption. If the people fail to get the promised amount in their bank accounts it would mean that Modi’s action was a farzi-cal strike.”

In the meantime Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee, in a bid to bring together different parties together on the issue of demonetization, called up Lalu Prasad.

Several parties are coming together on this issue ahead of the coming Winter Session of Parliament.

She is planning to lead a delegation to President Pranab Mukherjee on November 16 and 17 against the Prime Minister’s decision.

Lalu reportedly promised to send his party’s representative as part of the delegation to the President.

Later Lalu tweeted: “We are opposed to black money. But the Prime Minister’s handling of the issue completely lacked the vision for implementation. He should have taken care of common people’s convenience.”

RJD chief asked the Union government to release the statistics of people who died for want of food and medicine after demonetization. He also asked why Modi allowed the Rs 2,000 currency note when he demonetised the Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes.
