Leftist activists with party flags arrive to attend a mass meeting in Kolkata on April 20, 2025. With the battle for the 2026 assembly elections around the corner, CPI(M) state secretary Mohammad Salim, clad in a black kurta, thundered from the podium for a change in the state governance after three consecutive terms of Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress. Notwithstanding the 'zero' in assembly, the Leftists looked more enthusiastic than ever while sounding the poll bugle. "The Supreme Court has rubbed the Chief Minister's nose. RSS is building a base in the state thanks to Mamata Banerjee. Our leaders do not come from Tollygunge," Mohammad Salim attacked Banerjee in his customary challenging tone.Photo by Debajyoti Chakraborty.(Photo: Debajyoti Chakraborty/News Images)
