With Mamata Banerjee and J Jayalalithaa set to capture power in West Bengal and Tamil Nadu respectively, India will soon boast of four woman chief ministers.

Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee is set to capture power in West Bengal, which has a population of 9.13 crore (91.3 million).
Mamata has in fact emerged as the 'giant killer' for ending the 34-year-old Left front rule in West Bengal. She fought on the single electoral plank of doing away with the 'misrule' of Marxists.

AIADMK chief J Jayalalithaa is all set to come to power after defeating arch rival DMK. She will rule over nearly 7.2 crore (72 million) people in Tamil Nadu.
Jayalalithaa, who was out in the cold for the last five years in Tamil Nadu and the Centre, had her sweet revenge on Karunanidhi's DMK.
Jayalalithaa's single point campaign plank was to end the "family rule" of the DMK in the backdrop of the 2G spectrum allocation scam.
