Kolkata:
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee s bold call to take on her party s most prominent defector to the BJP on his home turf will be put to the test today as the people of Nandigram go to vote along with 29 other constituencies in the second phase of state elections.
Authorities on Wednesday banned large gatherings in the constituency for what is easily the most high-profile contest of this election that has seen supporters of rival parties clash in recent months.
Thursday s polling in West Bengal, home to 9 crore people, is central to a massive push by Prime Minister Narendra Modi s party to oust Mamata Banerjee, a fierce critic of his government, powered by a battle of attrition and astonishing resources.
