I'm Shocked: Mamata Banerjee Accuses Centre On Air India's Leave Without Pay

  • West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee condemned the decision to send some Air India workers on leave for five years without pay. 
  • She said, "I am shocked", and also accused the Centre and the BJP of taking advantage of the pandemic situation to change laws without consultation. 
  • "Whatever suits them to maintain dictatorship, they are doing", she further added.
  • Banerjee said, "Aren't their labour laws? Do you want to bulldoze all employees? No pay for five years in this situation? Farmers, migrants, govt employees all are asking for food and money."
  • She said, "Cash because they have none. Economists are saying to give cash to people. But you are snatching their service? You should be ashamed."
