Assembly Elections 2021
Songs, sarees, slogans: Chasing Mamata Banerjee and Suvendu Adhikari in Nandigram
The noisy, colourful high-stakes electoral battle in Nandigram has arrived. In one corner is the chief minister, Mamata Banerjee. Her rallies are full of dancing women, catchy songs, and appeasement for all. In the other is her former confidante-turned-BJP nominee Suvendu Adhikari. His rallies are full of gigantic cardboard cutouts, tuktuks blaring "Jai Shri Ram" slogans, and Mithun 'Ami Cobda' Chakraborty.
And somewhere in some corner, we have Meenakshi Mukherjee, the CPIM candidate who is agitating about the unfairness of it all.
Watch what is going down in Nandigram, Bengal, one of the most-watched contests of this election season.
