Mumbai, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday said the BJP-led NDA government at the Center was unstable and may not complete its term.
Banerjee met Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray at his residence 'Matoshree' in Bandra area. She will also meet NCP (SP) president Sharad Pawar during her visit, she said.
"This government too cannot continue. It is not a stable government," she said at a press conference with Thackeray.
"Khela has started, it will continue," Banerjee said when she was asked to elaborate.

The West Bengal CM said that no one was consulted when the three laws - Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA) that replaced the Indian Penal Code (IPC) - were passed. the Code of Criminal Procedure. (CrPC) and the Indian Evidence Act, respectively, were introduced in Parliament.
It was passed when a large number of parliamentarians were suspended, she said, adding that many people are afraid of these new laws.
"We do not support Emergency... (but) charity begins at home," she stated.
