Opinion | Mamata’s damage: ‘Attack’ on her or political ‘drama’
Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee is presently present process remedy in Kolkata’s SSKM Hospital, after she suffered accidents to her left leg and ankle and her shoulder, whereas campaigning in Nandigram on Wednesday. According to medical doctors, “presently she is traumatized. She has a severe injury in her left heel and ankle bone area. There are minor soft tissue and ligament injuries. There are also injuries on her right shoulder and right forearm as well.”
Presently, the chief minister is beneath medical commentary for 48 hours and has undergone a number of exams. While the circumstances referring to the incident usually are not clear, Mamata herself informed reporters quickly after the incident that 4 or 5 folks among the many crowd that was current to greet her, all of the sudden tried to close the door of her car due to which she fell and suffered accidents. She mentioned, her left leg was swollen and he or she was feeling feverish. Security personnel accompanying in different autos rushed to the spot, put icepacks on her leg, and he or she was whisked away in a convoy to Kolkata. A ‘green corridor’ was created for the CM to succeed in the hospital.
The incident hours after Mamata filed her nomination from Nandigram and made visits to a number of temples. Visuals of Mamata writhing in ache and chatting with reporters in a traumatic situation, certainly introduced unhappiness within the minds of individuals keenly watching her election marketing campaign. Since it’s election time, Mamata’s allegation is sensational as a result of she alleged it was a “saazish” (conspiracy) and that there have been solely 4 or 5 individuals who pushed her from among the many crowd. The incident occurred in Birulia Bazar in Nandigram.
Let us pray to God that she recovers on the earliest. I do know Mamata is a fighter, she is going to get well early and take the electoral struggle to the following stage quickly. All of a sudden, Mamata’s damage has turn out to be the most well liked subject within the Bengal elections, with the BJP and the Congress alleging that this was solely a “political drama”. One of the leaders mentioned that Mamata all the time moved round with 300 safety personnel, and it was exhausting to think about 4 or 5 individuals pouncing on her. Another chief alleged that this was Mamata’s fashion of garnering sympathy from the folks.
I feel native leaders of the BJP and Congress had been in a rush whereas reacting they usually jumped to conclusions with out first ascertaining details. They may have no less than waited for the medical report and, after all, the report from safety personnel. One motive may very well be that they ae frightened Mamata may achieve sympathy from the voters of Bengal after this incident.
Politics makes folks merciless. This was seen in Bengal, when tens of millions of viewers noticed the chief minister groaning in ache and chatting with reporters with issue. She is in hospital, present process remedy, and but, Congress chief Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and BJP MP Arjun Singh described this incident as ‘political drama’.
These leaders ought to understand that Mamata has a protracted historical past of being attacked and overwhelmed up throughout the Left Front rule, and the folks of Bengal won’t ever take such remarks evenly. Even at the moment, folks used to explain Mamata with her bandaged head as ‘drama’. The outcomes are there for all to see. Politicians must be cautious and circumspect earlier than making such off-the-cuff remarks when a pacesetter is injured.
