Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee fought off criticism that her Railway Budget was Bengal-centric and said she had kept in mind the entire country.

''I work for the entire country, which others don't do. I did not deprive anyone. After serving other parts, if I do some work for Bengal, I have not committed any crime. I will do it again," She told Bengali news channel Star Ananda when asked about criticism that the budget was Bengal-centric.

On public-private partnership in Railways, Banerjee said "we are not corporatising the Railways. We can go for PPP model for creating new infrastructure without disturbing the existing infrastructure as the Railways did not have so much fund".

"Railway is not being privatised and it is my responsibility to give protection to railway staff," she said.
