After her rally, Mamata thanked Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, Samajwadi Party and the people of the state in a series of tweets. "Thank u Lucknow & Uttar Pradesh.Thank u @yadavakhilesh @SamajwadiParty thanks to the women of UP for your presence in large numbers. We are taking this people's movement to Patna tomorrow at Gardani Bagh Dharnasthal, 1 pm," she said. While leading a protest march against demonetisation in Kolkata, Mamata said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has acted like god in implementing the demonetisation decision without caring about the common people. She also threatened to demonstrate outside Prime Minister Modi's residence in the national capital against the demonetisation move. "The people are distressed. I believe such a step has not been taken anywhere worldwide. Suddenly Modi ji felt, he acts like God. He has done whatever he wants, without knowing the consequence. Ask him why there's scarcity of notes in banks. If there were ample notes in banks then nothing would have bothered us. Without any proper strategy he took the step," she said. "I am taking pledge that either I'll die or live, but will remove PM Modi from Indian politics," she said on Monday.
