Not only this, Didi has also fielded her nephew Abhishek Banerjee in the election field and given the message that Abhishek can take charge of the party in the times to come. So let us know what is the special thing in TMC’s list which is surprising.
- In the Lok Sabha elections 2019, Mamata Banerjee had surprised actresses by fielding them, but this time she has surprised everyone by canceling the ticket of actress Nusrat Jahan from Basirhat seat and actress Mimi Chakraborty from Jadavpur seat. Haji Nurul Islam has been made the candidate from Basirhat. This time all eyes were on Basirhat Lok Sabha seat because the Sandeshkhali area where there was uproar comes under this Lok Sabha constituency.
- Congress fire brigade leader Adhir Ranjan Choudhary, who always opposes Mamata Banerjee, has fielded cricketer Yusuf Pathan against her. The biggest thing is that Yusuf Pathan is a resident of Gujarat. But Mamata Banerjee has hit two birds with one stone by making Pathan her candidate. Now everyone’s eyes will be on Pathan, who hails from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state.
- Former cricketer Kirti Jha Azad has been given ticket from Bardhaman-Durgapur seat. Kirti Jha has been a former BJP MP but a few years ago he joined TMC. Former cricketer Azad’s father has also been the Chief Minister of Bihar. There is a good number of voters from Bihar in Durgapur parliamentary seat. Therefore, this move of Mamta is going to increase the problems of BJP.
- Mamta has once again expressed confidence in Bihari Babu from Asansol seat. BJP had made Bhojpuri singer Pawan Singh its candidate from here but Pawan Singh has refused to contest the election from here.
- The ticket of Arjun Singh, who joined Trinamool after winning the election from Barrackpore seat on BJP ticket in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, has been canceled. Mamata Banerjee has made state government minister Partha Bhowmik the candidate in place of Arjun Singh from Barrackpore.
- Mamata Banerjee has fielded her nephew Abhishek Banerjee from Diamond Harbor parliamentary seat. If Abhishek Banerjee is successful in winning the elections from here, then he can take charge of TMC in the coming times.
From Vishnupur Lok Sabha seat, TMC has fielded Sujata Mandal Khan, who is the wife of BJP MP Soumitra Khan. BJP has fielded Soumitra Khan from here. Therefore, an interesting contest can be seen between husband and wife on this seat. - Didi has placed her bet on former IPS Prasun Banerjee on Malda North seat. Pruson Banerjee has recently taken Veeraras. He is a 2006 batch IPS officer of West Bengal cadre.
- Mamta has once again made Mahua Moitra the candidate from Krishnanagar parliamentary seat. Let us tell you that Mahua Moitra has lost her MP. Mahua Moitra has lost her MP in the Lok Sabha on charges of asking questions in exchange for bribe.
