Bachchans and Rais get together to bid final goodbye to Aishwarya’s father

A dramatic political face-off is unfolding in West Bengal as Mamata Banerjee and Suvendu Adhikari take their campaigns into symbolic territory. On Eid al-Fitr, Mamata used the platform to attack the Bharatiya Janata Party and defend voter rights, while Adhikari visited the Kalighat Temple to emphasise cultural identity and political change. The timing and messaging from both sides underline a deeper shift in Bengal politics, where religion and symbolism are shaping the electoral discourse. As allegations against the Election Commission add to tensions, the campaign is becoming more intense and polarised. The battle for Bengal is no longer just political — it is now a contest of narratives, identity, and influence.
