Aiming to lead Trinamool Congress to power for a second successive
tenure, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday filed her
nomination papers for the assembly elections from prestigious Bhabanipur
constituency in south Kolkata.
Mamata Banerjee's nearest rival in the constituency Deepa Dasmunshi, Congress candidate and wife of ailing Congress leader Priya Ranjan Dasmunshi, and BJP candidate Chandra Kumar Bose, nephew of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, also filed their nominations for Bhabanipore.
Accompanied by a large number of supporters, Mamata Banerjee came in a rally from Hazra to Alipore where she submitted her papers at the District Election Office.
As per her affidavit, Banerjee's annual income for 2014-15 was Rs 5,92,655 and she doesn't own any immovable properties or have any vehicle registered in her name.
Her movable assets comprise cash in hand of Rs 18,436, Rs 27.61 lakh in bank investments, nine grams of jewellery worth Rs 26,380, and a multi-gym machine worth Rs 2.15 lakh, besides Rs 5,188 as personal advances.
Incidentally, Mamata Banerjee's assets have nearly doubled in the last five years. In the 2011 assembly polls, her assets, comprising entirely of moveables - were valued at Rs 15.84 lakh.
Polling in the Bhabanipur Assembly constituency is scheduled for April 30 in the fifth phase
Note
Mamata Banerjee had won the Bhabanipur seat in an Assembly by-election in 2011 by a comfortable margin of 54,213 votes defeating Left Front candidate Nandini Mukhopadhyay.
