#BengalShahdown: Final act in #BengalShahdown, roadshow begins
Mamata Banerjee has the unerring ability to shoot herself in the foot. She has repeatedly handed the BJP easy psychological victories by being oversensitive about its rise in West Bengal.
With the Calcutta High court allowing the rally of BJP President Amit Shah to go ahead after the municipal authorities said no, she has been delivered a rap on the knuckles. She had no business trying to block it. Now she has lost face.Making belligerent noises and not getting anywhere with it has been Banerjee’s track record with the BJP.
During the Lok Sabha campaign she threatened to jail Narendra Modi. A party spokesman, Derek O’Brien, once the voice of sobriety, called Modi “the butcher of Gujarat”. At the end of the day, the BJP ended up with 17 percent of the popular vote – an unprecedented achievement for a party that was practically non-existent in the state till recently.
This week her party MPs disrupted parliament claiming to be concerned about black money. It may have embarrassed the BJP leadership somewhat, since many non-BJP parties joined in the bashing, but once the spotlight moves on, it will rest on the black money scam erupting in Mamata’s own backyard - the Saradha Ponzi scheme which has seen several Trinamool leaders arrested. Everyone now understands that Mamata’s belligerence stems from her vulnerability on Saradha.
