Adhir consoles Renuka Maddi at her home near Behrampore on Tuesday. What drove Renuka Maddi, 46, to put the crushing grief aside for a while was the “unbearable fear of Dada (Chowdhury) losing by one vote”. I am shocked as well as overwhelmed that a woman could think of voting for me on the day she lost her son. “While I was waiting outside the post-mortem room, I began to wonder, what if Dada (Chowdhury) loses by one vote? I went to Dada (Chowdhury) for help and he secured the land for us.
