Continuing to voice her criticism over the reported move by the Centre to dilute provisions of the MNREGA Act, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said she would take her fight to Delhi.
"We have to continue our fight for the people. We have to continue fighting against dilution of the 100 days' work programme. We will take the fight to Delhi," Banerjee said while addressing a party workers' meeting here.
Targetting the BJP-led government at the Centre, she said that there would be no compromise with those who deprived and exploited the poor people.
