13 reviews for Didi – A Political Biography

  1. Srishti

    Found it insightful but biased. The author clearly admires Mamata. Still, it’s a useful overview.

  2. Prajwal Narendra Akhade

    Not a bad book, but it lacks critical analysis. I wanted more depth and less hero-worship. Easy to understand.

  3. Ankul Sharma

    I appreciate the book’s attempt to be balanced, but it sometimes felt too academic and dry. Still, informative overall.

  4. Lakshyaa Anand

    A decent read about Mamata, though I felt it glossed over some important controversies. Gupta does a good job framing her political journey.

  5. Jahnvi Arora

    I enjoyed this book! It’s well-written and provides a nuanced view of Mamata Banerjee’s political career.

  6. Ayush Arora

    A compelling narrative about an important figure. I couldn’t put it down!

  7. Sahil Singh

    Gupta provides great context to Mamata’s rise. I wish there was more analysis of her policy decisions. A mixed bag.

  8. Khushi Srivastava

    It can be dry at times, but the book’s research is thorough. A must-read for anyone interested in Indian politics.

  9. Prayag Sharma

    An insightful biography! It gave me a deeper understanding of Didi’s impact on West Bengal, both positive and negative.

  10. Yash Raypa

    Well-researched and balanced. The author provides a fair account of Mamata’s strengths and weaknesses.

  11. Ayush Shukla

    Excellent biography. A deep dive into the life and times of a remarkable leader. Highly recommended.

  12. M Anil Naik

    A fascinating look at a complex leader. I learned a lot about West Bengal politics. Recommended!

  13. Ishwar Sharma

    This book painted Didi in an overly positive light, but its a great, concise overview of her career.
