November 12th, 2011 - 5:00 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, Nov 12 (IANS) Days after his remarks on the Congress-Trinamool Congress alliance casued outrage, West Bengal Left Front chairman Biman Bose Saturday took a dig at Mamata Banerjee’s “car visits” to districts, saying that the chief minister perhaps had problems in walking.
“She might be having problem in walking, so she is undertaking car visits to different districts of the state and coming back,” Bose said while talking to reporters in New Delhi, where he is scheduled to attend a Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) central committee meeting.
When asked to review the performance of the state’s five-month old Trinamool government, Bose said: “If these visits bring something good, then that’s good for the state. If nothing good happens, then we will say. No review can be done before six months.”
Bose Wednesday had apologised for his remarks on the future of the Trinamool Congress-Congress alliance.
“The comment which I made was not acceptable to me. I apologise for making such comment. Actually, I was bit disturbed after repeated queries from the scribes. I didn’t mean to say what I said,” Bose had said in a statement.
