Mamata Banerjee: Journey of Bengal’s daughter to nation’s Didi Mamata Banerjee became the chief minister of West Bengal in 2011 by ending the 34-year-long CPI(M) regime Striving to prove that “Bangla nijer meyekei chaye” (Bengal wants its own daughter), she continues her stride in the political spectrum of the nation that began in 1975 making the headlines by dancing on the car of the most influential leaders of that time Jayaprakash Narayan as a mark of protest. Forty-six years have passed since then; her fighting spirits continue to shine in Indian politics. She is ‘Nation’s Didi’ Mamata Banerjee. She became the chief minister of West Bengal in 2011 by ending the 34-year-long CPI(M) regime, one of the longest-serving elected governments in the world. Now after ruling the state for two successive terms, the 2021 poll battle is surely not a cakewalk for her. It is the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that trespassed her dominion after gaining overwhelming results from the state in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. And, the emergence of the Left-Congress-ISF alliance has made the situation more complicated for her. Banerjee endorses her governance as the rule of three ‘M’s, that is, ‘Maa’, ‘Mati’ and ‘Manush’ (mother, soil and people). But, the Bengal elections have another 3M factor this time, that is, ‘Mamata’, ‘Modi’ and ‘Muslim’. So, Banerjee’s challenge is to counter Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s popularity in Bengal at one side and regain her support base of the minority community that might step out with the Left-Congress-ISF alliance. Now making the battle of power more interesting, Mamata has chosen Nandigram over her home turf Bhabanipur seat this time to test her fate in the 2021 elections. It was the agitation in Nandigram and Singur against the Left government’s land acquisition policies that made Mamata Banerjee the Chief Minister of West Bengal. Now not just Bengal, but the country’s eye is on Nandigram that will witness the most high-profile contest on April 1 with the chief minister taking on her former ministerial colleague Suvendu Adhikari, who had joined the BJP in December last year. Further, Banerjee’s poll campaign this time got a new dimension with a wheelchair after she suffered an injury earlier this month while campaigning in Nandigram. Not to mention, the West Bengal Chief Minister spared no poll stage to launch scathing attacks on Prime Minister Modi. However, the Modi-Mamata battle was quite visible even before the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. She played an instrumental role in bringing together all opposition parties against the Centre prior to the 2019 general elections. The seventh-term MP also has been among the first key figures who heavily criticised the central government in issues starting from demonetisation to Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and lockdown to fuel prices. Her fighting spirit and mass appeal have made her one the tallest opposition figures in the current political arena. Mamata Banerjee started her political career as a Youth Congress worker in the 1970s. She quickly rose the ranks and became the general secretary of Mahila Congress and later All India Youth Congress. In 1984 she was elected as a member of parliament in the 8th Lok Sabha becoming one of India’s youngest parliamentarians. She founded the All India Trinamool Congress in 1997 after a disagreement with Congress. Mamata Banerjee worked with three Prime Ministers including PV Narasimha Rao, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Dr Manmohan Singh. She had been a Union Minister in both National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and United Progressive Alliance (UPA) governments and held portfolios like Human Resource Development, Youth Affairs and Sports, Women and Child Development, Coal and Mines and the Railways. Notably, she was the first woman to become a railway minister in the country. The Time Magazine named her among the 100 most influential people in the world in 2012. Hailing from a lower-middle-class family, Mamata Banerjee worked as a milk booth vendor to battle poverty. Her father passed away due to the lack of treatment when she was just 17. The fighter in her never let the barriers dominate her. She continued her education and earned a Bachelor’s degree in History, a Master’s degree in Islamic History and degrees in Education and Law from the University of Calcutta. She also worked as a stenographer and a private tutor before joining full-time politics. Another disposition of Mamata Banerjee is her minimalist lifestyle. Despite being the Chief Minister, she still lives in her ancestral terracotta-tiled roof house at Kolkata’s Harish Chatterjee Street. White cotton sarees having mono-colour borders and slippers are all that define the fashion statement of Mamata Banerjee. The West Bengal Chief Minister is also a self-taught painter, poet and writer. She has authored more than 100 books. She is also tech-savvy and remains active on social media. The Trinamool Supremo is also known for her walkathons or marches. Here it needs to be mentioned that she walks five-six kilometres on a treadmill every day. When it comes to evening snack time, she likes to have tea, puffed rice and ‘aloo chop’. The second phase of the West Bengal Assembly polls is scheduled for April 1. In phase-II, 30 seats covering a segment of South 24 Parganas, Bankura, Purba Medinipur and Paschim Medinipur will go to polls to decide the fate of 171 candidates including 19 women. Meanwhile, the first phase of the West Bengal Assembly elections concluded with an estimated 79.79 per cent voter turnout on Saturday. In the first phase, 30 seats covering all Assembly constituencies from the districts of Purulia and Jhargram and a segment of Bankura, Purba Medinipur and Paschim Medinipur went to polls.

- बिहीबार, १६ जेष्ठ, २०७६ नयाँ दिल्ली, जेठ १६ । भारतका प्रधानमन्त्री नरेन्द्र मोदीले दोस्रो कार्यकालका लागि आज शपथ लिँदैछन् । स्थानीय समयानुसार साँझ ७ बजे राष्ट्रपति भवनमा उनको शपथ ग्रहण कार्यक्रम हुनेछ । मोदीको शपथग्रहण समारोहमा सहभागी हुनका लागि विभिन्न मुलुकका सरकारप्रमुखलाई आमन्त्रण गरिएको छ । तर केही स्वदेशी अतिथि भने शपथग्रहण समारोहमा सहभागी नहुने भएका छन् । तीमध्ये एक हुन् पश्चिम बंगाल राज्यकी मुख्यमन्त्री ममता बनर्जी । ममता बनर्जीलाई मोदीले ‘दिदी’ भनेर सम्बोधन गर्दछन् । लोकसभा निर्वाचनकै क्रममा मोदीले बलिउड अभिनेता अक्षयकुमारलाई दिएको एक अन्तरवार्तामा समेत वर्षमा एक/दुई पटक दिदी (ममता बनर्जी) ले आफूलाई कुर्ता, मिठाइ पठाउने गरेको बताएका थिए । ममताले मोदीको सो भनाइलाई ‘राजनीतिक लाभ लिने प्रयास’ भनेर टिप्पणी गरेकी थिइन् । राजनीतिक संस्कारका रुपमा आफूले दिएका उपहारलाई समेत मोदीले राजनीतिक लाभका लागि प्रचार गरेको भन्दै ममताले आपत्ति जनाएकी थिइन् । पश्चिम बंगालमा लोकसभा निर्वाचनमा भारतीय जनता पार्टीले यसपटक राम्रो नतिजा ल्याएको छ । त्यसअतिरिक्त ममता बनर्जीका पार्टीका दुई सांसद र केही पार्षद भारतीय जनता पार्टीमा प्रवेश गरिसकेका छन् । यसका बाबजुद ममताले मोदीको शपथग्रहण समारोहमा सहभागी हुने घोषणा गरेकी थिइन् । बुधबार साँझ ममताले अचानक आफ्नो निर्णय पुनर्विचार गर्दै शपथ ग्रहण समारोहमा नजाने निर्णय गरेकी हुन् । समाचार एजेन्सीहरुका अनुसार मोदीको शपथ ग्रहण समारोहमा पश्चिम बंगाल राज्यबाट ५४ परिवारका प्रतिनिधिलाई सहभागी गराइँदैछ । भारतीय जनता पार्टीका अनुसार राजनीतिक हिंसाका क्रममा पश्चिम बंगालमा मारिएका आफ्ना ५४ कार्यकर्ताको परिवारबाट प्रति परिवार दुई जनाका दरले प्रधानमन्त्रीको शपथग्रहण समारोहमा अतिथि बनाइएको छ । पश्चिम बंगालकी मुख्यमन्त्री तथा तृणमुल कांग्रेसकी नेतृ ममता बनर्जीले अन्तिम समयमा आएर शपथग्रहण समारोह वहिष्कार घोषणा गर्नुको मूख्य कारण यही नै हो । ममताले भाजपाका ती ५४ कार्यकर्ताको हत्या राजनीतिक कारणबाट नभएको दावी गर्दै आएकी छन् । व्यक्तिगत दुश्मनी, पारिवारिक झगडा, अन्य विवादका कारण उनीहरुको हत्या भएको हुन सक्ने तर्क गर्दै ममताले राजनीतिक हिंसाबारे प्रदेश सरकारमा कुनै रिपोर्ट नआएको दावी गरेकी छन् । भारतीय जनता पार्टीले भने आफ्ना ती कार्यकर्ता राजनीतिक हिंसाका क्रममा मारिएका र पश्चिम बंगालको सत्तारुढ दल तृणमुल कांग्रेसका कार्यकर्ताले सत्ताको आडमा उनीहरुको हत्या गरेको आरोप लगाएको छ । मोदीको शपथग्रहण कार्यक्रममा एकातिर ती ५४ जनाको परिवारलाई ‘सम्मानस्वरुप’ अतिथि बनाउन लागेको अवस्थामा आफ्नै पार्टी कार्यकर्तालाई संदिग्ध हत्याको जिम्मेवार बनाइएको अवस्थामा सोही मञ्चमा आफू बस्न नसक्ने तर्कका साथ ममताले मोदीको शपथग्रहण कार्यक्रम वहिष्कार गर्ने निर्णय गरेको बताइन्छ । मुख्यमन्त्री बनर्जीले ट्वीट गर्दै भनेकी छन्, ‘बधाई नयाँ प्रधानमन्त्री नरेन्द्र मोदीजी । मेरो योजना संवैधानिक निमन्त्रणा स्वीकार गर्ने र शपथग्रहण समारोहमा जाने नै थियो । तर अन्तिम क्षणमा म मिडियामा देखिरहेकी छु कि बंगालमा राजनीतिक हिंसामा ५४ जना मारिएको भनिएको छ । यो पूर्ण रुपमा झुठो हो ।’ उनले बंगालमा त्यसप्रकारको कुनै पनि राजनीतिक हत्या नभएको दावी गरेकी छन् । ‘त्यसैले मलाई माफ गर्नुस् नरेन्द्र मोदीजी, म शपथग्रहण समारोहमा सहभागी हुन सक्दिनँ ।’ (एजेन्सी)
