Mamta Banerjee said, ‘They have been beating us since three o’clock. They kicked me and switched off the CCTV. One of our agents was not allowed to enter. I entered for 5 minutes. I requested that our agent be allowed to enter, but no one was available.
Trinamool Congress President and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has made serious allegations regarding the election results. On Monday evening he said, ‘They have been beating us since 3 o’clock. They kicked me and switched off the CCTV. One of our agents was not allowed to enter. I entered for 5 minutes. I requested that our agent be allowed to enter, they assured me that they would allow entry but then no one was available. I have complained everywhere.
Speaking to reporters, Mamata Banerjee said, ‘BJP looted more than 100 seats. Election Commission is the commission of BJP. I complained to CO and Manoj Aggarwal, but they are not doing anything. Do you consider this a victory? This is an immoral victory, not a moral victory. What the Election Commission did, in collusion with the central forces, in collusion with the Prime Minister and the Home Minister, is completely illegal. It’s loot, loot, loot. we will return.’
Tough competition on Bhawanipur seat
Meanwhile, Trinamool Congress candidate Mamata Banerjee is maintaining a slim lead of just 3830 votes over her rival and BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari after 14 rounds of counting in Bhawanipur seat. According to Election Commission data, Mamata Banerjee has received 48,671 votes so far. BJP is heading towards a massive victory in West Bengal and is leading or winning 204 seats. The party has won 117 seats and is leading on 92.
Trinamool Congress has won 44 seats and is leading on 37. This victory of BJP in West Bengal will be historic for the party as this state has been dominated by Congress, Left parties and later Trinamool Congress for a long time. It is also the home state of BJP ideologue Syama Prasad Mukherjee. In the last assembly elections, BJP had won 77 seats. In these election results, the effect of BJP’s steadfast strategy and vigorous campaigning on every issue against the ruling Trinamool Congress is visible. BJP also left Trinamool Congress behind in promises for various sections. There was a lot of controversy regarding the SIR of the voter list in the elections.
