As the date of the highly anticipated Saheed Diwas rally, on July 21, draws near, preparations are underway to ensure its success. The gathering is expected to witness a mammoth crowd of 25 lakh people, coming together to support Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee say party members.
In preparation for the event, a massive 30-feet platform has been constructed to accommodate the leaders who will address the gathering. The meeting is a significant event for the Trinamool Congress, and speculations are rife that the party's national general secretary, Abhishek Banerjee, may use this platform to announce the date for the Delhi Chalo rally.
The Dharmatalla venue, where Trinamool supporters from across the state will assemble, has been historically known for witnessing grand rallies. However, the event has often faced challenges due to heavy rains. This year, the forecast from the Alipore Meteorological Department predicts the possibility of heavy rains on Friday. Despite the rain concerns, a silver lining for Trinamool is that the rain is expected to subside during the gathering, offering some relief.
The July 21 rally holds immense significance for the Trinamool Congress as it showcases the party's strength and serves as a platform for leaders to address the masses, rallying support ahead of crucial political battles. Authorities and party organizers are leaving no stone unturned to ensure the event's smooth functioning, even with the potential weather challenges.
