The last many years she was a rolling punctuation in the university-scape of Presidency. A wizened comma in a white sari and an orthopaedic belt strapped to her back. There were many who had no idea who she was or what she was doing there.

Dipankar Bhattacharya, CPIML Liberation general secretary, pointed out: “Other ruling parties too have histories of torture but they are not fascists like the BJP.”
Debnath is not advocating voting for Mamata. He and Bhattacharya are part of an extraordinary campaign in Bengal that stands out because they do not seek votes for any party or person. Instead, they have a crystal-clear appeal: Don’t vote for the BJP.
