Kolkata, May 4:West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday urged all regional parties to unite to oust the UPA government at the Centre.

Banerjee, who spoke for nearly two hours at a public rally at Panihati in North 24-Parganas district, alleged a conspiracy by the Congress and the CPI(M) against her government, while dubbing the the central government 'vindictive' towards West Bengal.

Stopping short of giving a call for a fourth front at the national-level, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today exhorted regional parties to come under one umbrella and oust the Congress-led UPA government at the Centre.

"Now there should be a slogan -- No third UPA government. Let all regional parties unite to provide a stable and pro-people government at the Centre," Banerjee told at the party rally.

Claiming that the UPA would not come to power in the next Lok Sabha elections, the Trinamool Congress supremo said "One, two, three, bid goodbye to the UPA government. We want a change in the seat of power in Delhi.

"We have the strength to fight all odds and ensure that a third UPA government is not formed after the Lok Sabha elections," she said.

Banerjee, who spoke for nearly two hours, alleged a conspiracy by the Congress and the CPI(M) against her government, while dubbing the the central government 'vindictive' towards West Bengal.

Alleging that the Centre wanted to deprive the state economically, she said that conspiracies began after the Trinamool Congress quit the UPA government.
