Dinesh Trivedi the incumbent Railway Minister finally resigned on Sunday bringing to a close five-day drama after he incurred the wrath of his party Trinamool Congress for hiking passenger fares in the Railway Budget. It is being said that Trivedi’s decision came after a word from the PMO to quit.
Earlier, West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinammol Congress party chief Mamata Banerjee said in Kolkata that she had talked to her party colleague on the same issue, clarifying that Trivedi had assured her of his resignation as per party wishes. Mamata has been very clear that she wants Mukul Roy to take over as the Rail Minister and the Prime Minister too had assured Mamata that her demand for replacing Trivedi will be acceded after the presentation of the general budget.
