Mamata says 'outsiders' being added to voter's list at her seat
Hindustan Times Gurugram
|October 16, 2025
West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee has that the demography of Bhowanipore assembly seat in south Kolkata was being deliberately changed by bringing in outsiders.
Banerjee is likely to contest from Bhowanipore in the 2026 assembly elections.
“Bhowanipore is being gradually filled up by bringing in outsiders and this is being done in a well-planned manner. By mentioning outsiders, I am not referring to those who are residents of West Bengal. People (from outside) are coming here and purchasing land and constructing houses. They are giving money to locals and then leaving,” she said on Tuesday without naming anyone.
Bhowanipore is a stronghold of the ruling-Trinamool Congress (TMC) from where party chief Banerjee has been winning since 2011. Her residence in Kalighat is also within the Bhowanipore constituency.
