Although I don't approve some of her actions, yet I don't consider her to be an anarchist. And that won't be fair or objective. Her emergence in West Bengal calls for a more serious and objective study of the politics over the last few decades.
Objective study of Bengal politics may point to demerits, inefficiency or demerits of Mamata's opponents but this cannot change true color of Mamata revealed during the last one year and even earlier. Her irresponsibility, dubbing all her opponents or even honest critics as Maoists, dubbing even worst rape crime as CPI(M) conspiracy speak volumes about her.
In this connection, experience in U.P. is also irrelevant. People voted for Bahujan Sanajvadi Party because of lawlessness and crimes in Samajvadi rule. Mayavati came to power and she indulged in statue making and crushing and blaming opposition for everything- Congress and Rahul at centre and Samajvadi Party in U.P. consequently, Samajvadi Party returned to power.
