Trinamool Congress leader Mukul Roy on Friday said UPA government was in a hurry to introduce FDI in retail bypassing the Parliament.
Stating that TMC ministers would submit their resignations to the Prime Minister later in the day, he told PTI “This is a minority government and the act of bypassing the Parliament is most unethical.”
“According to our schedule we will go to the Prime Minister’s house at 3 p.m. for submitting our resignations and after that we will proceed to the Rashtrapatti Bhavan” for communicating through a letter the party’s stand that all India TMC is withdrawing support from “this anti-people government,” Mr. Roy said.
Besides Mr. Roy, who is Railway minister, there are five union ministers of state belonging to the party.

Thanks Mamata for coming out of the UPA Govt. You people had
successfully blocked UPA from increasing rail fares which was very
important for railways modernization. This shows your party's interest
towards the country's development. I wish all the best to UPA. Hope you
increase rail fares & develop railways.
Good riddance. Why do they have to sneak FDI outside of parliament? Because
opposition does not allow parliament to function. TMC does not want to debate the
pros and cons of FDI. They want to make sure their point of view.
