West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee hit out at the Centre on Tuesday over floods in the Paschim Medinipur district, stating that the situation was a result of the Centre dilly-dallying the Ghatal Master Plan project. After touring the flood-hit areas of Ghatal, Ms Banerjee said she would send a team to New Delhi to pursue the Centre in approving the project. "This is a man-made flood. The Centre is not paying heed to our requests for the Ghatal Master Plan. Repeated requests are falling into deaf ears," she said.
