Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said there is a syndicate between the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and warned that both parties can together sell the country.

"BJP and Congress can together sell the country," the TMC chief warned.

"CPI-M, BJP and Congress all tried to suppress me, but I won't be suppressed. I started with Kolkata, but I can start from anywhere. Punjab, Delhi, Bihar all are my states," she said.

She also pointed out that the Congress and the BJP had also colluded in the tabling of the Telangana Bill in Parliament.

"Their syndicate did not allow the amendments for the bill to be passed. So, they can sell the country whenever they want," she added.

In an apparent reference to BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, Mamata said the Gujarat leader has a communal face.

"Child death in Gujarat is higher than in West Bengal. And, the same can be said about the school-dropout rate. It needs to be checked," she said.

Mamata also vowed to hold rallies in most of the states.

"I had problems in state, but I had promised so I came. We will be holding rallies in almost every state of the country. We will hold rallies in UP and Gujarat too," she added.
