The human sea at the Trinamool Congress gathering at Esplanade on Tuesday 21 Jul 2009, saw the birth of a mature politician – Mamata Banerjee. Success has made her more sensible. She asked her supporters to behave politely and not to resort to blockades without the permission of the leadership. People are in distress. Food prices are soaring. Lets not to add to their inconvenience.
Her victory rally, timed to coincide with the Martyr’s Day in commemoration of 11 Youth Congress workers killed in police firing in 1993, saw a record turnout that clogged the city streets, bringing traffic in arterial roads to a standstill for nearly five hours.
After her stunning performance in the recent Lok Sabha polls, Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee making it clear that she was now thinking beyond Trinamool’s role as an Opposition party, she gave a hint of her priorities as the leader of the party in power in the state in 2011.
A beaming Mamata unfolded her roadmap for the post-2011 Bengal, saying the industry and the agriculture will grow side by side. “Both will flourish under the Trinamool rule. They will be like two sisters — hashi (smile) aar khushi (happiness).”
It seems she is in the process of changing, but she is still to be more matured and realistic in talking as well as in her works.
