"In India, there are no banks in 92 percent villages. The central government has become faceless after making the country cashless. The government bulldozed for cashless economy. Many people who were working in different sectors have returned home. About ten crore workers have become jobless after demonetisation.
"We are preparing a feedback and a list from those who have lost their jobs. We will send the list to the President," she said.
Banerjee said there is no money in the villages. "The decisions were repeatedly changed from sunrise to sunset. No one knows who were running the country (government). In fact the Finance Minister does not know."
Without taking the name of Prime Minister Modi, she alleged that "Alibaba and his four associates" were taking all decisions.
"Alibaba and four others have been bulldozing the people of the country, their party and the government. God knows what decisions were taken."
