Cover Story: India Today Hindiâs cover story Shuru Ho Gayee Ulti Ginti is about the current crisis of UPA-2. Mamata Banerjee waved her cell phone like a weapon in an epic battle. She told a packed press conference at Kolkataâs Town Hall on September 18 that she had sent an SMS to Congress President Sonia Gandhi on September 14, soon after the Government announced it would liberalise FDI in four sectorsâretail, aviation, non-news broadcasting and power exchanges. There was no answer. There was no confusion about her decisions. All her six Trinamool Congress (TMC) ministers would hand in their resignation to the Prime Minister at 3 p.m. on Friday, September 21, after âjumma namaaz (Muslim Friday prayers)â.
