There is no Modi craze or wave here, however, the craze for Mamata Banerjee has increased manifold. I am a dedicated and devoted soldier of my party and leadership. During my campaigning, people from the rural areas gather to express their love, faith and gratitude to their Didi, Mamata Banerjee. There is no existing power, which can break the bondage of the people with Mamata Banerjee.”
