Kolkata: Mamata Banerjee will make her first public appearance
on Thursday after she got selected to continue the second term as the Chief
Minister of West Bengal. The CM is all set to address lakhs of people outside
the Victoria House at Esplanade to commemorate the Martyr’s Day.
July 21 is celebrated annually as Martyr’s Day to memorize
the killing of 13 congress youths on this day of 1993. EXIN Times sources have
asserted that apart memorizing the martyrs in the day-long rally, Banerjee is
likely to thank her supporters during her speech for selecting her for the
second time.
The rally, which will receive thousands of Trinamool
Congress supporters from suburbs and villages, will be squeezed with more than
2800 police personnel. 23 deputy commissioners, 60 assistant commissioners, 400
sub-inspectors and sub-guards, 450 assistant sub-Inspectors and 200 women
police personnel will be deployed to duty today. 13 ambulances, Radio
Flying Squads and Heavy Radio Flying Squads, Kolkata police’s dog squad and
bomb squad will also be present in the rally to prevent any untimely situation,
as a Kolkata police officer has said to EXIN Times.
Also, picture of CM Banerjee was permitted to use in all
campaign materials for Thursday’s rally. Party supporters have been ordered to
not collect any money from the public for any cause. “Following a direction
from our top leadership, all leaders have been told not to use their
photographs along with Didi’s in all
flexes, banners and posters for the July 21 martyrs’ day where she will be the
main speaker,” said a TMC party member who is in charge to scrutiny the party
regulations.
He also added that the higher authority had sent CDs to all
district units of the party, MPs, MLAs and councilors with Banerjee’s photo in
it. It has been ordered to use that particular photo only to maintain uniformity.
TMC authority also has been asked to not use any other name or take printouts on
campaign materials.
