My sense about West Bengal, and Ms Mamata is clear.
She will now fight it out in a structured and organised manner on the streets. Though many near and dear ones will desert her, but she will not stop. The govt. would be spooked and avoid harming her as much as possible. She just will go on and on about vote chori.
Notice carefully: she is the only regional leader who has openly and loudly claimed "100 seats stolen" and is going hammer and tongs on it. Neither Udhav, nor Tejaswi, nor the Huddas, nor Pattnaik ever fought back. They meekly accepted the most unexpected outcomes and went into their shells depressed for a long time. Even Rahul.
This is the moment to rejuvenate the INDIA alliance, if Rahul Gandhi really has the mettle, the willingness, the grand vision and the desire to be on the streets every single day till 2029. Take everyone along. Swallow bitter pills. Hug everyone. Accommodate all.
Tough ask. But no other way.
Acid test of leadership for all. Thanks to Modi.
