Stepping up her anti-Centre tirade, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said she had met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh several times to protest against fertiliser price hike but to no avail, and she could not do anymore.

"I have met PM ten times. I cannot do more than this. Shall I go and beat (him up)? Then you will say I have become a goonda. Without doing anything I am (called) a goonda. I do not mind that. But I know the way out. We will have to set up a fertiliser factory and it will need three or four years' time," Banerjee said.

She said the central government was pursuing "anti-people" policies like FDI in multi-brand retail and diesel price hike.

"We cannot allow FDI in retail and other anti-people decisions like repeated hike in the diesel prices and the cap on LPG cylinders," Banerjee, whose party Trinamool Congress had quit the government in September last year over these issues, said.

The chief minister claimed that the Congress-led UPA would go in for a snap election in the middle of this year.

"They would go for an election in August-September this year. There will be no implementation of the forthcoming Union Budget (budgetary proposals which will be placed in Parliament)," Banerjee said.

The chief minister threatened to "take the fight for Bengal to the streets of Delhi" if the Centre did not respond to her demand for a three-year moratorium on repayment of past debts and interest on them.

Ms.Mamata Banerjee's indignified statement shows nothing but she is street leader not at all political leader. Political leaders maintains their status and make opposition to maintain their status also. But here Madam Mamata is different type. Allegations, dismissal of Centre, CPM, Congress and BJP spreading rumours against her government and now she went even to talk like insane person beating of Prime Minister of India. This is her insanity, indignity towards opponents, instead of law abiding she is law breaking. Actually she proved 1000 times she is unworthy of CM's chair and after her becoming CM she lost all her mental stability. Only God alone save West Bengal from Ms.Mamata Banerjee.

No, mammy you are not allowed to cross the borders of w bengal, Keep on following your funny and stupid policies in wb and go on in deeper and deeper pit of poverty; it is your choice. And though I dislike MM as much as any other citizen of this nation, I am not going to let you do this. If he is not giving you any money than he is saving that money.

I cry for you, West Bengal!!

This stupid little idiot is all mouth and no good. Those who live in Bengal know very well that the situation is much more worse that what was before. West Bengal is now only equal to UP in the rape count! Basic infrastructure is pathetic. Corruption is rampant. All goons who were earlier with CPM are now with Trinamool. West Bengal, which was one day ruled by the intellectuals, have now been taken over by the corrupts, anti-socials, and criminals. Mamata is a befitting leader of them. And her words are equally befitting to her.
