West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee displayed her culinary skills by making momos at a local stall in Darjeeling. The TMC has shared a video in which the chief minister can be seen rolling out momo dumplings with two other women. Sharing the video, the Trinamool Congress called Banerjee ‘a leader of masses’ who doesn’t sit in ivory towers, but is a part of every family of Bengal.
A leader of the masses and with the masses! Hon’ble Chairperson @MamataOfficial is seen with the locals of Darjeeling wrapping dumplings. The heartwarming visuals remind us that our leader is not someone who sits in ivory towers, but who is a part of every family of Bengal,” the party said.
The video went viral on social media with many praising the chief minister for her simplicity.
Reacting to the video, a Twitter user pointed out that Banerjee loves cooking and she has done such a thing in the past as well. The user also shared pictures of her where she was seen making puchka (gol gappe), tea and sabji.
Two day ago, the chief minister was seen serving pani puri to people at a stall during her visit to Darjeeling.
Mamata Banerjee also likes painting and she puts out her work regularly. Last year in April, the chief minister was seen painting while she was sitting on dharna at Gandhi Murti in Kolkata to protest against a 24-hour ban imposed by the ECI on her from campaigning in the assembly elections.
