Mamata abstains from vote after lunch with the Yadavs, UPA plate full

Updated - 10/3/2010 - indianexpress.

 

In a development that stumped the government, its key constituent Trinamool Congress on Tuesday abstained from voting on the Women’s Reservation Bill in the Rajya Sabha on the directive of party chief Mamata Banerjee, who alleged that she was kept in the dark over the way the Bill was being passed.


Interestingly, the change in the mercurial leader’s stand came after a meeting with the Yadav duo, Lalu Prasad and Mulayam Singh, over lunch and with members of some half-a-dozen Muslim organisations who are opposing the Bill demanding sub-quota for OBCs and Muslim women.

 

The government was little prepared for this, considering that just a day earlier, Mamata along with her party MPs had broken out into “We shall overcome...” in the Lok Sabha to express her strong support for the Bill.
