West Bengal Polls | Jhalmuri to Dance: Leaders Show Softer Side in Bengal Polls
As campaigning wrapped up in West Bengal, the high-voltage political battle was marked not just by sharp rhetoric but also lighter, relatable moments. Prime Minister Narendra Modi blended spirituality and connect with temple visits, a boat ride on the Ganga River, and a viral street-food stop for jhalmuri. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee countered with her own grassroots touch-dancing with locals and shopping at a market. Union Home Minister Amit Shah offered prayers at Gangasagar, while BJP leader Anurag Thakur was seen enjoying local cuisine. These candid moments added colour and human connection to an otherwise intense electoral contest.
