How Didi is planning to checkmate BJP in Bengal

Three numbers throw light on Mamata's strategy. First, about 1 of every 3 party MPs in the outgoing LS has not made it to the list. Secondly, more than 2/5th of its nominees have either never entered Parliament or are contesting from a new seat. And, third, over 40% of its poll tickets have gone to women, indicating the constituency the party is keen to woo.
