Banerjee accompanied by Trinamool Rajya Sabha MP and actor Mithun Chakraborty and party candidates from Jadavpore and Kolkata South, Professor Sugata Bose and sitting MP Subrata Bakshi drove in an open jeep as flower petals were showered and conch shells blown.
Party supporters and workers carrying party flags and posters shouted 'Maa Mati Manush Zindabad' and 'Mamata Banerjee zindabad'.
A party supporter sitting in a wheel chair, an 80-year-old woman, an eight-year-old kid and teenagers stood for hours on both sides of the road as Mamata's juggernaut rolled through.
