The Trinamool Congress has released its campaign roster for the Rejiginanj by-election, signalling an all-hands-on-deck approach in the strategically important West Bengal assembly seat. Party supremo Mamata Banerjee will personally spearhead the canvassing effort, alongside her nephew and party general secretary Abhishek Banerjee, underscoring the significance the ruling party attaches to retaining the seat.
The campaign machinery will be bolstered by a clutch of senior party leaders and legislators. The list of star campaigners includes Lok Sabha member Mahua Moitra, Trinamool MP Humayun Kabir, and senior state legislators including Kalyan Banerjee and Sovandeb Chattopadhyay.
