Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee on Friday claimed that she has information that a polical party in Delhi had held a meeting to advance the Lok Sabha poll to 2013 and asked her partymen to be ready for it.

"Anyday, we can face election. We have to remain ready," she said.

"One party has held a meeting to hold the election in advance, though my information may not be correct," Banerjee told a meeting of Trinamool Congress without naming the party.

"I have got the information. I am not going into details as to who were at the meeting. They deliberated on advancing the Lok Sabha election to 2013," she said.

Banerjee turned to her close aide and Railway Minister Mukul Roy and said, "What Mukul? Wasn't the meeting held?"

Asking her partymen to behave, she said, "We are in the government. We should not do anything so that people misunderstand us."

Warning her partymen not to indulge in groupism, she said if any legislator or member of Parliament does not take care of the people, "We do not require them."
