Didi: Will oppose raise in insurance FDI cap

Published on: 

West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee on Saturday said her party would oppose any attempt to pass the Bill in Parliament to raise FDI cap in insurance sector to 49 per cent and will be vocal against the BJP-led Government over communal violence. Describing her strategy for the Winter Session of Parliament, beginning on November 24, Banerjee, who held a meeting with party MPs to discuss the party’s strategy in the coming Session, said, “This Government is trying to sell out the country. We will oppose FDI in insurance and other issues including against communal violence. We should not be taken for granted. In Rajya Sabha, they (NDA) do not have majority. They may  try to pass it forcibly. We have 45 MPs (lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha). If they think we will help them in passing FDI in insurance, they are dreaming.”
