At 5 pm, yesterday (Thursday) the curtains came down on the high decibel campaign in 30 assembly seats in West Bengal where polls are scheduled in the first phase on March 27.
The campaign for the 30 seats saw leaders of BJP, which has emerged as the main opposition to the ruling party in the state Trinamool Congress, addressing poll rallies in Purulia, Jhargram, and Bankura districts.
In one of the rallies of BJP, state party president Dilip Ghosh had made an indecent comment on Mamata Banerjee about her injury and her wearing saree.
