Spent a delightful evening with Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee’s niece, Dr Chandra Mukherjee & her husband Dr T.K.Mondal. Both distinguished doctors who have selflessly served people. Many anecdotes, episodes, stories came crowding from “Mejo-Jethu’s” life of epic proportions.

Campaigned in Harinavi area in support of BJP candidates: free ration, medicines at affordable price, renovation of ghats & cremation grounds, tap water in every house, historic vaccination drive: all by #ModiGovt while #WestBengal CM is busy supporting #DawoodIbrahim’s manager!

Campaigned for #BJP candidates in #Joynagar, a historic town, birth place of Prof Bimal Krishna Matilal, one of the finest philosophers, Joynagar is also known for its “Moya” -traditional puffed rice ladoo. Spoke of ODOP, Har Ghar Jal, Kashi Vishwanath & Durga Puja’s UNESCO tag.

In a series of “paths-sabhas” in Bishnupur: spoke on PM Modi’s #smartcity vision, how #WestBengal withdrew from it,on Kashi’s transformation, on infrastructure transforming, on cultural circuits, on water ? & tap ? being provided through PM Modi’s flagship “Har Ghar Jal”

Campaigned in historic Bishnupur today: a town rich & replete with Bengal’s lore,temples,music – all of which lie unattended. Effective, municipal governance centered around these could have done wonders for this ancient town. But TMC’s corruption & inaction has marred all.

Many young, promising karyakartas have been fielded by BJP, their ability to campaign, mobilise option, withstand TMC pressure & intimidation is phenomenal. They continue to hold & hold on to the LOTUS symbol and the flag! Addressed a series of patha-sabhas in their support!

Glimpses: Municipal Polls campaign: #BJP Has fielded a number of candidates who are young, from various professions who have a positive acceptability at the grassroots…It is also building up generational leadership from grassroots ups wards… campaigned for them…

In Baruipur campaigned whole day in support of BJP candidates: door to door campaign & street corner meetings! Candidates putting up a valiant fight in face of tremendous adversities! In West Bengal civic, amenities collapsing,temples not safe, corruption,inefficiency rampant

In Baruipur: campaigned for BJP candidate: Ward 8: a sacred place where Sree Chaitanya Mahaprabhu had done his Sadhana, the ghat associated with him is being dumped with drain water, Mahaprabhu Matha’s cows have been stolen, no plan, no vision. Only BJP can bring a change.

Prof Manoranjan Joadder, activist, intellectual, respected leader of SC community in #Sunderban area, longtime #BJP karyakarta led movements on Marichjanpi, infiltration, CAA. We have worked together on a number of such issues. Campaigned for him today in Rajpur-Sonarpur!
