The biggest test of Bengal politics! Will Mamata Banerjee be able to save her fort? The gaze of rebels, BJP and Congress


The politics of West Bengal has come to a very sensitive and decisive juncture at this time. This is going to be the biggest test of Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s political influence, organizational skills and political strength so far. The upcoming political developments and important elections in the state will make it completely clear how strong the command of power in Bengal remains in Didi’s hands. Not only the internal rebels of TMC are keeping their eyes on this big political riot, but the main opposition parties BJP and Congress are also watching with full force to set their strategic pieces. Rebels’ attitude and TMC’s internal crisis: Is Didi’s clan cracking? If we believe the whispers going on in the political corridors of Kolkata, everything is not going well within the party. For some time now, rebellious voices have started coming forward from local level leaders to many big faces. These rebel groups are only waiting for the right opportunity when Mamata Banerjee’s grip weakens and they can choose their new political path. In such a situation, the biggest challenge before Didi is not only to fight the external opponents but also to suppress the discontent growing within her party and keep the entire organization united. Only the results of this litmus test will decide in which direction the future of Trinamool Congress will go in Bengal. BJP’s aggressive siege and Congress’s game plan: Opposition sees a big opportunity. On the local politics of West Bengal, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has doubled its siege against the Mamata government. BJP is continuously trying to push Didi on the back foot on the issues of corruption and law and order, from streets to social media. On the other hand, Congress is also sensing the changing political winds of Bengal and is trying to regain its lost support base. Both the camps of the opposition feel that if Mamata Banerjee’s strength proves to be even a little less this time, then the power equation of Bengal will change completely in the upcoming assembly and local elections. Will Mamata Banerjee be able to do magic again on the basis of public support? Amidst all these challenges and all-round attacks, Mamata Banerjee’s biggest strength even today is her direct public relations and her strong hold among the women and rural voters of Bengal. Didi, who has been ruling Bengal for decades with the slogan of ‘Maa-Mati-Manush’, is currently busy in strengthening her strong influence among the people through local rallies and government schemes in every corner of the state. Now it remains to be seen whether Didi, with the help of her old aggressive style and infallible political diplomacy, is able to prove her strength once again by breaking through this maze of opponents or will there be a new upheaval in the politics of Bengal.
