Mamata Banerjee Ke Jemon Dekhechi: A Book That Exposes the Dark Side of the Bengal Chief Minister
Mamata Banerjee Ke Jemon Dekhechi (Mamata Banerjee As I Have Known Her) is a book written by Dipak Kumar Ghosh, a former member of the Trinamool Congress Party, which is led by Mamata Banerjee, the current chief minister of West Bengal. The book claims to reveal the true face of Mamata Banerjee and her party, which is accused of corruption, violence, nepotism, and authoritarianism.
The book was published in 2013 and contains 180 pages of documents, letters, photographs, and comments that allegedly expose the misdeeds of Mamata Banerjee and her associates. The book also criticizes her policies and performance as the chief minister of West Bengal, which is one of the most populous and politically important states in India.
The book faced a lot of opposition and censorship from Mamata Banerjee and her supporters, who tried to prevent its publication and distribution. According to the author, many prominent newspapers and publishers refused to publish or review his book due to fear of losing government advertisements or facing legal action. Some journalists who tried to cover the book launch were attacked and harassed by Trinamool Congress activists. The book was also banned from online platforms like Amazon and Flipkart.
However, the book managed to reach some readers who were interested in knowing the truth about Mamata Banerjee and her party. The book has received mixed reviews from critics and readers, some of whom praised it for its courage and honesty, while others dismissed it as a biased and sensationalist account. The book has also sparked debates and controversies about the role and responsibility of the media, the freedom of expression, and the state of democracy in West Bengal.
Some of the controversies that marred the West Bengal election campaign are:
The alleged attack on Mamata Banerjee: On March 10, Banerjee claimed that she was attacked by some unidentified men in Nandigram, where she was filing her nomination papers. She suffered injuries on her left leg and had to be hospitalized for several days. She accused the BJP of being behind the attack and said it was an attempt to kill her. The BJP denied any involvement and alleged that Banerjee was faking the incident to gain sympathy votes. The Election Commission ordered a probe into the matter and concluded that it was an accident and not a planned attack.
The leaked audio tapes: On March 27, the BJP released an audio clip of Banerjee allegedly speaking to a BJP leader in Nandigram and asking for his help to win the seat. The BJP claimed that the tape exposed Banerjee's desperation and lack of confidence in her own party workers. Banerjee admitted that it was her voice but said that she was only trying to pacify a disgruntled former TMC leader who had joined the BJP. She accused the BJP of tapping her phone and violating her privacy. On April 10, the BJP released another audio clip of Banerjee's nephew and TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee allegedly speaking to a coal scam accused and demanding money. The BJP said that the tape revealed the corruption and extortion racket run by the TMC. The TMC dismissed the tape as fake and fabricated.
The communal polarization: The West Bengal election saw a sharp communal polarization between the Hindu and Muslim voters, who constitute about 70% and 30% of the state's population respectively. The BJP tried to woo the Hindu voters by raising issues such as illegal immigration, cow slaughter, minority appeasement, and religious conversion. The TMC tried to consolidate the Muslim voters by highlighting its welfare schemes, secular credentials, and opposition to the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC). Both parties also used religious symbols, slogans, and leaders to appeal to their respective vote banks.
The personal attacks: The West Bengal election witnessed a bitter war of words between Banerjee and Modi, who addressed each other as \"Didi\" (elder sister) and \"Dada\" (elder brother) respectively. Banerjee called Modi a \"liar\", a \"cheat\", a \"fascist\", and a \"monster\". She also mocked his beard, his clothes, his gestures, and his speeches. Modi called Banerjee a \"dictator\", a \"corrupt\", a \"nephew-lover\", and a \"speed-breaker\". He also ridiculed her injury, her paintings, her temper, and her governance.
The violence and intimidation: The West Bengal election was marred by several incidents of violence and intimidation involving supporters of both parties. There were reports of clashes, stone-pelting, bombing, firing, booth capturing, vandalism, and arson in various parts of the state. Several candidates, workers, and voters were injured or killed in these incidents. The Election Commission deployed a large number of central forces and observers to ensure free and fair polling. However, both parties accused each other of using violence and intimidation to influence the voters. 061ffe29dd
