To say that Dilip Ghosh attracts crowds is a bold statement, and an indicator of the tilt in Bengal politics. I am not sure whether Dilip Ghosh will become the next chief minister of West Bengal, but BJP always springs a surprise with its chief minister candidates, like how Yogi was chosen in Uttar Pradesh. Modi and Shah, I am sure, have shortlisted a few names for the post of chief minister in West Bengal and one of them is Ghosh.
It will be foolish on the part of BJP to project Ghosh as the chief minister candidate, as such a decision will help Mamata Banerjee as she had the same popularity in many parts of West Bengal. For the BJP, it is always safe to fight elections in the name of Modi and, if it wins, select a suitable chief minister.
