The all-party peace initiative for restoration of peace at Nandigram suffered a jolt on Thursday, with Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee walking out after Communist Party of India (Marxist) leader Subhas Chakraborty refused to accept the March 14 police firing as 'genocide'.

Banerjee, who entered the meeting venue along with her party colleague and Leader of the Opposition Partha Chattopadhyay at 3:15 pm, walked out after 45 minutes and drove to her residence.

Meeting convenor and Forward Bloc state Secretary Ashok Ghosh tried to tackle the situation but failed.
