As a communist I have no problems to congratulate Mamata on the eve of the day when the first woman chief minister of West Bengal will take oath in Raj Bhavan but I feel that a lot of myth and hype has shrouded the lady and the reality cannot be hidden for a long time.

Who is Mamata Banerjee?

To a person who has seen her from the days of early 80s, she is nothing a but an unpredictable and highly emotional political leader without any real agenda. Her sole agenda was to unseat the Left from power which she has been able to do because of her focus but after defeating the Left she is completely goal less.

Does she really lead a simple life?

Well, she is a person who tries to prove to masses that being well-off and well groomed is sort of a sin and so she wears a hawai chappal and simple cotton sarees as if that will solve the problem of poverty. This is nothing but hypocrisy and if she really is so unconcerned about her appearance then can she tell why she regularly dies her hair jet black? Does she have a problem to accept that graying is a natural process and she is over 50 now, no longer a young woman who once climbed on the bonnet of Jai Prakash Narayan's car to perform a "Tandava Nritya".

Is it not symbolism and trying to show that she is a poor person that she still lives in the semi slum area of Kalighat in a tiled roof house whereas she conducts her election campaigns in helicopters mainly. May be it will give her an excuse for not doing anything to raise the standard of living of poor and lower middle class people and getting their votes.

What a smart tactics!

We have heard that she is the poorest minister and has only got 1 Lac as bank balance, not sure whether it is now up by 2.5 crores as it was reported that she sold her art of that amount in a 3 day exhibition held recently. The funniest thing is that there was so much of demand that she did not sleep during those three nights and just kept on painting to feed to the demand. But still we will call her an artist giving the full benefit of doubt :)

Many politicians in India has benami properties and it is surprising that no one is talking about Mamata's four brothers who all are sitting on heaps on money, can we talk about the occupation of her brothers and their life styles?

But there is a danger that more we ask these questions, more the myth that is been carefully crafted about Mamata will be shattered and the stark reality will come out in front of our naked eyes.

She is undoubtedly the most partisan railway minister India ever had and misused the railway ministry fund to give full page advertisements in all leading dailies of West Bengal almost every day before the elections on the plea of laying foundation stones for railway projects. God only knows how many of them will be ever actually carried out.

Her so called pro-poor policies of not increasing fare are forcing Indian Railways to give 3rd grade service. Even the prestigious trains like Rajdhani Express have now the same ambience like her Kalighat area, filled with filth and absence of any comfort. The Railway catering is almost unpalatable and the entire system of Indian Railways was degraded during her regime (and will continue to do so as she is putting a puppet from her party to run the railways).

The Future of Bengal

Mamata is a one woman show (she will call it a "one man show"), TMC is the most autocratic political parry and there is no place of any democracy. You will see that all these economists and quiz masters will soon be side tracked and the party will be eventually run by ex-Congress gangsters and hooligans of Kalighat.

There is already revenge killings that have started in all over West Bengal and it is shocking to see that TMC workers are recovering arms, how that is possible that unarmed disciplined cadres are recovering weapons from armed people of another party? These are nothing but dirty tricks to malign the communist and put non-bailable cases against communist part workers.

Under Mamata the West Bengal can descend into a complete anarchy as she has little experience of administration. She is already a laughing stock and can become a huge hit to the media when she opens her mouth. She wanted the blessings of Sonia whom she once fought and came out of Congress forming Trinamool but now she is running after the same lady almost begging her to come to the oath function but Sonia did not oblige.

Let us not forget that the same person once used a forged doctorate degree from a phony US university and used to write Dr. Mamata Banerjee which tells the integrity of the person. So how many of you expect a resurrection or a renaissance of Bengal under Mamata? You must be dreaming.

She will be lucky if she can complete the full term and West Bengal will deteriorate under TMC rule.
