Brinda Karat participates in Kisan Sabha rally in Patna



CPI(M) politburo member and Rajya Sabha MP Brinda Karat alleged that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had announced that Bandyopadhyay Commission recommendations would not be implemented as he was under pressure from big landlords.
Brinda Karat was addressing the rally taken out by the All India Kisan Sabha and All India Agricultural Workers Union in Patna on June 14, 2010.
She asked her party members to launch a movement demanding implementation of the commission's recommendations.
After becoming Chief Minister in 2005, Kumar had set up the Land Reforms Commission under D Bandyopadhyay, credited as a key architect of land reforms in West Bengal. The commission submitted its report to the government in 2008.
Karat demanded that the Congress party tender an apology to the country for allegedly providing safe passage to Warren Anderson in the aftermath of the Bhopal gas disaster.
"The Congress should tender an apology to the nation for giving safe passage to Warren Anderson," she said.
