New delhi date. Monday, April 19, 2021

Many questions are being raised about the ongoing West Bengal elections amid the Koro epidemic. In the midst of all this, after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, now TMC president Mamata Banerjee has also decided not to campaign further. Mamata Banerjee tweeted to TMC MP Derek O'Brien that she would no longer be campaigning in Kolkata.

Mamata Banerjee will no longer campaign in Kolkata for the Bengal elections, said Derek O'Brien. They will symbolically hold only one meeting in the city on April 26, the last day of the election campaign. In all the remaining districts he has reduced the time of election rallies, which will now be only 30 minutes.

Earlier, Mamata Banerjee had said that she wanted all the other phases to be held together but the Election Commission did not do so because the BJP wanted more phases of elections so that it could campaign.

Rahul Gandhi wrote in a tweet on Sunday that he was canceling all his rallies in Bengal due to Koro's transition. Rahul Gandhi has held only 2 rallies in Bengal. He held rallies on April 14 in North Dinajpur and Darjeeling districts.

Rahul Gandhi tweeted, "In view of the Kovid crisis, I have decided to cancel all my rallies in West Bengal." Political forces should consider how much danger these rallies pose to the people and the country at such a time.

However, after Rahul Gandhi's tweet, Bengal BJP leader Shishir Bajoria sarcastically questioned whether the Congress was also in the picture.
