Kolkata, Oct 15 (IBNS) West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday slammed the Centre's move to curtail the scope of 100 days' work.

In her Facebook post, the CM said: “West Bengal is the first State to protest against the Central Government’s unjust decision to curtail the scope of 100 days’ work, which is against the fundamental principle of the Act to benefit the downtrodden people of rural India.”

She said that the basic principle of the Act to provide economic empowerment to the poor people of rural India would stand defeated.

“Today, I reiterate to fight against the Centre’s decision to restrict the scope of 100 days’ work, which will only bring disaster to the poor people of the country,” she said.
