CM Mamata Banerjee will take this issue to the people of Bengal as a matter of regional identity and pride. Subnationalism lurks just beneath the surface in many parts of India. CMs of two national parties – Shri Vijay Rupani in Gujarat, Shri Kamal Nath in MP – want 80% of jobs to be reserved for “ locals “. When it comes to relations between Centre and states, a lot of it is codified in the Constitution. Beyond that, especially when governments formed by different parties face each other – Nawab Jung’s depredations in Delhi with AAP being a particularly egregious example of how things should not be done – there are conventions and modes of graceful behaviour that have served a India well for seventy years. Recall PM Nehru writing a fortnightly letter to CMs, sharing his perspectives, with the hope that India would be well governed, at federal and state level. It should not have come to this in Calcutta. The Bengalis are a naturally emotional and culturally gifted people. Expect Didi to step forth, a blend of Joan of Arc, Mother Teresa and Ma Durga.
