Mamata Banerjee Stands For National Anthem Despite Injured Leg As Campaign Ends In Nandigram For West Bengal Polls 2021
  • 3 years ago
Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee ended the campaign for Nandigram on a high note on March 30. She stood up on the dais despite her leg injury during the national anthem. Nandigram, which has turned into the centerpiece of the state assembly election, with the prestige fight between the Chief Minister & her aide-turned-bitter-enemy Suvendu Adhikari, goes to polls on April 1. March 30 was the last day of campaign. Banerjee, who injured her leg the day she filed her nomination for the seat, had made it a point to campaign across the state on wheelchair. At every rally, she had insisted that her injury was nothing compared to what the country has sustained under the BJP rule. Nandigram has been the place that catapulted the 66-year-old to power a decade ago, bringing down the 35-year-old Left citadel in the state. For Suvendu Adhikari, Nandigram was the obvious choice.
