In West Bengal, This Chaiwala Is Gunning To Be A Legislator

"Will you be the next Narendra Modi?" A question that is often asked at Babushona Sarkar's tea shop on platform number 2 at Aranghata railway station in West Bengal's Nadia district. The 27-year-old is the CPI(M) candidate from the Ranaghata constituency and sells tea at the hole-in-a-wall shop for a living. But Mr Sarkar is in no mood for comparisons. The youngest candidate this election and also one of the poorest, he says, "He (PM Modi) is in his place and I'm in mine."
