"Through the inland letter, we will tell the voters that Mamata di is destroying West Bengal with each passing day. They must defeat her in Bhabanipur bypoll to save the state from her misrule. People of Nandigram had done it, now it is time for Bhabanipur voters," a party leader said.
The letter will also tell voters about BJP candidate Tibrewal and her fight to get justice for victims of post poll violence. "We will tell the voters that Tibrewal is a daughter of West Bengal and how she fought for the victims of post-poll violence," another BJP leader said.
