CPI-M warns central governmentThe Communist Party of India-Marxist Friday ''warned'' the Union Government against taking any move intended to ''subvert'' Centre-state relations in West Bengal. The CPI-M politburo, in a statement in New Delhi, said the continued ''barrage of baseless charges'' being made by Union Home Minister L K Advani against the West Bengal government seemed designed to misuse the powers of the central government. Among various measures being contemplated by the Centre for improving law and order was the application of the Disturbed Areas Act without the consent of the state government. ''An ordinance seeking to amend the act is being considered by the government to suit the political interests of the Trinamul Congress. If such a step is taken it will not be tolerated by the people of the state,'' the politiburo said.

''Do I have to make a statement to make Advani happy? I have spoken the truth. It matters little whether Advani liked it or not,'' Basu told mediapersons. He once again described Banerjee as a ''violent sort of woman'' and said she had the propensity to incite people to violence. UNI
