Polar vortex be damned, the cold wave that’s taking over India is perhaps the result of Mamata Banerjee’s royal ‘cold-shoulder’ to PM Narendra Modi in the build-up to the Lok Sabha Elections of 2019.
First, it was the Mahagathbandhan rally in the heart of Kolkata which was basically an anti-BJP bitching session. In fact, we hear, the cha-loving Kolkata turned to coffee just because they won’t indulge in 'chai pe charcha'!
(Just kidding).
Then, Mamata Di added some much needed ‘Bangaliana’ by turning Amit Shah into Omit Shah — yes, we add ‘o’ everywhere. Sometimes it’s just poetry — by omitting and forbidding him from landing in West Bengal.
But nothing got the meme machines rolling like the news of Mamata Di detaining the CBI.
Is West Bengal turning into Gotham? Perhaps yes. And that means Didi is Batman!
We took a stroll around social media and curated a meme-fest that may not last as long as Mamata’s dharna does, but it will be close enough.
For the uninitiated, or those who sleep on Sundays, here's the sequence of events...

But does she really need to be someone else? Mamata... naam hi kaafi hai.
