Reacting to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee reaching the Supreme Court to argue her own case in connection with the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process in the state, people took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday morning.
Several people called it a "good move" and "historic".
One user said, "Indeed incredible - And I’ve been of the opinion and candid in saying that @AITCofficial have been playing the role of #Opposition very effectively - Looking forward to seeing her in the Court with her logics and rejoinders."

"History will be made today. A Chief Minister abandoning governance to personally argue in court... to protect dead and duplicate voters from being removed from electoral rolls," one user said.
"Bring it on didi," said yet another X user.
One user said, "History in motion. When Didi speaks, she speaks for every Bengali whose voice was silenced. The fight for justice begins today — for truth, for democracy, for Bengal. #MamataBanerjee #FightForBengal."

One user lauded the Chief Minister for "handling BJP like she does" and wrote, "Tamed ED in Kolkata. Cooked Gyanesh by marching to the EC with hundreds declared dead on paper. Now CM Mamata Banerjee is likely to appear before the Supreme Court as a lawyer fighting for the victims of SIR. UNPRECEDENTED. No opposition handles the BJP like she does."
