Impressed with West Bengal Chief Minister's managerial qualities, a 25-year-old man is now pursuing a doctorate on Mamata Banerjee from Vidyasagar University in West Midnapore district.
A resident of Hatitota village in Burdwan district, Rezaul Islam Mollah has been inspired by Mamata Banerjee since childhood.
In his views, "She doesn't possess a formal degree in management, but the managerial skills that she has is unmatched. The way she led and coordinated the Singur and Nandigram movements, the way she continues to handle various affairs even after becoming the chief minister is a lesson that needs to be taught in management institutions."
A post-graduate in management, Mr Mollah cannot stop talking about her.
"Since my childhood I have been seeing Mamata Banerjee fighting for the rights of the poor and the oppressed. As a child, I saw how she came to the rescue of my parents and villagers who were being hounded by political goons" he said.
Echoing similar sentiments, the University authorities are equally excited about Rezaul's choice of subject for the doctorate degree.
"The university and UGC were quite happy with his choice, and we are eager to see his research work. It is commendable that Mollah has chosen a contemporary political figure."
