Itahar, Apr 16 (UNI): West Bengal chief minister and Trinamool supremo Mamata Banerjee today said the country needs a people’s government.

Addressing an election rally here, she said: "A United India Government will be formed at the Centre."

"Whenever any disaster occurs, our government always stands by the people. From floods to accidents – we always work for the welfare of the people," she said and listed the trains she started that have helped people in the region. "But the Centre has left these projects incomplete. When our government comes to power at Centre, we will complete these projects."

"I had started several trains like Janmabhoomi, Raja Rani, Padatik, Kanchan Kanya and others. North Bengal was neglected in the past. We created a new secretariat Uttar Kanya in north Bengal. We have set up the Circuit Bench of Calcutta High Court in Jalpaiguri. People of north Bengal will no longer have to go Kolkata for administrative work, " she reminded voters.

"A new university and medical college have been sanctioned for this district. Loans worth Rs 4,000 crore have been sanctioned for small industries and subsidies worth Rs 2,000 crore have been given to them, " she said.
