Kolkata, Apr 8 (IBNS) Gearing up for the political battle, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who will be looking forward to bring her party to power in the state for the second time, filed her nomination paper from Bhawanipore constituency for the state Assembly elections on Friday.

"#BengalPolls #AITCWinning @MamataOfficial files her nomination from Bhowanipore constituency," the Trinamool Congress tweeted.

Banerjee went through the paperwork at the Alipore Survey Building in South Kolkata.

She will fight to retain the seat as a Trinamool Congress candidate.

She was accompanied by a large number of party men.

The main rivals of Banerjee, the TMC supremo, are Deepa Das Munshi of the Congress, who has been fielded as a candidate of the Congress-Left alliance.

The Bharatiya Janata Party has nominated Chandra Bose, a nephew of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.
