Thousands of people ranging from excited children to euphoric elderly women gravitated towards the smoke-white chopper of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of West Bengal as it hovering over Nabadwip, a small town in Nadia, familiar for its religious significance. As the chopper landed, the chorus of cacophonous party slogans reverberated through the town as a white wheelchair-bound Ms Banerjee went up on the stage to greet people for the Bengali New Year and Ramadan before delivering her speech.
