The battle for Bengal is quite the political potboiler, and stirring in some pop-culture references doesn't harm.
The BJP has been conducting a massive campaign on Didi's turf in Bengal over the&nbsp;last couple of weeks, with senior leaders from Amit Shah to JP Nadda to Prime Minister Narendra Modi&nbsp;reaching out to voters ahead of the assembly polls.
At one such election rally in West Bengal&rsquo;s Anandapuri, BJP president Jagat Prakash Nadda dropped a catchphrase from the recent 'Pawri' trend to announce the party&rsquo;s development plan for the state.
However, many pointed out that it was the Trinamool&nbsp;Congress who jumped onto the 'Pawri' bandwagon first.

Tamil Nadu CM E Palaniswami on Friday declared a gold loan waiver just hours before the announcement of state election dates.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister E Palaniswami on Friday declared a gold loan waiver just hours before the announcement of state election dates, which will bring a model code of conduct into place.
Gold loans against up to six sovereigns given by cooperative banks to farmers and the poor will be waived, the Tamil Nadu government announced.
Justifying the move, Palaniswami said the economy was yet to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic and this would help the poor redeem the gold they had pledged during the lockdown.
The gold loan schemes with low-interest rates were offered by the Tamil Nadu State Apex Co-operative bank as part of Covid relief measures. The interest rate has been fixed at 6% a year. In this, people could get ₹25,000 to ₹1,00,000 and the loan has to be returned in three months.

In a series of tweets, Mamata said, wages have been increased to ₹202 per day from ₹144 earlier for unskilled labourers, while the hike for semi-skilled labourers has been revised to ₹303 from ₹172 earlier. A new category has been introduced for skilled labour, whose wage has been fixed at ₹404 per day.
Mamata Banerjee said a total of 56,500 workers in Bengal will benefit from the move. She added that these wages are in parity with rural workers&rsquo; enhanced pay (MNREGA unskilled &amp; semi-skilled). Budget provision for this step has been made available for both FY21 &amp; FY22.

In what could spell fresh trouble for Mamata Banerjee, sitting MLA from Mongolkot in East Burdwan district, Siddiqullah Chowdhury.

In what could spell fresh trouble for Trinamool Congress chief <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/ahead-of-poll-date-announcement-mamata-hikes-wages-for-daily-wage-labourers-1614338176937" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mamata Banerjee</a>, sitting MLA from Mongolkot in East Burdwan district, Siddiqullah Chowdhury, one of the key faces behind the Nandigram anti-land acquisition movement, has decided not to contest from his own constituency in the upcoming assembly polls.
A News18 report said&nbsp;Chowdhury has expressed displeasure over the &ldquo;indifferent behaviour&rdquo;, &ldquo;unorganised functioning of the district leadership&rdquo; and &ldquo;lack of courtesy&rdquo;.
Quoting Chowdhury, the report said, he has informed about the poor leadership at the district level to Mamata Banerjee as well. Chowdhury reportedly said he is a &ldquo;bhumiputra&rdquo; of Burdwan and cannot be a mute spectator if the district lags behind on the path of development due to poor leadership.
In the 2016 assembly polls, Siddiqullah Chowdhury won the Mongolkot seat by a margin of nearly 12,000 votes. Mamata then made him a cabinet minister.
