When Mamata Banerjee was unleashing an attack on Amit Shah in East Burdwan on Friday, the Union home minister was moving from door-to-door in the chief minister’s home turf Bhowanipore, appealing to people to vote for the BJP.
Mamata is the sitting MLA from Bhowanipore but this time has contested from Nandigram in a prestige battle with her protégé-turned-BJP candidate Suvendu Adhikari.
Shah visited a Bhawanipore slum in ward 72 of the Calcutta Municipal Corporation on Friday, indicating how important it was for the BJP’s central leadership to wrest power in Bengal.
“This wasn’t just a road show or a public meeting. The Union home minister calling on every house in a slum and speaking to the residents is very significant because Bhawanipore is Mamata’s home turf,” a state BJP leader said. “Our leaders believe if we win Nandigram and Bhowanipore, half the job is done,” he added.
