The whisper is that Didi has undergone a fitness regime not only to shed some weight but to power her for a rigorous campaign. That is not confirmed; what has seeped through the curtain of privacy is that she has been working out on a treadmill at home, doing about 20 to 30 minutes in bouts almost every morning.
The extra energy she has gained has been put to good use. Mamata Banerjee has packaged her campaign with long walks, padayatras 6 to 10 km each, crisscrossing the city and evoking a tremendous response.
In contrast, her chief opponent Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee has confined himself largely to his own constituency. Of the 15-odd public meetings the Chief Minister has addressed so far, 10 have been in Jadvapur.
Mamata began with a 7-km walk on the southern outskirts of Kolkata, covering four Assembly constituencies on Sunday. On Tuesday, she followed it up with another 10 km from Tala Park in the north to Beliaghata in the east, covering four to five constituencies. This will be followed over the next few days with 6 km from Park Circus to Rajabazar, through the city’s Muslim areas; then 6-7 km from Gariahat to Garia and another walk from Ekbalpore to Garden Reach
