In the escalating political battleground of West Bengal, Bihar Minister Ramkripal Yadav launched a critical attack against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, indicating her anticipated defeat in the state assembly polls. Yadav asserted that the electorate had already dismissed Banerjee's Trinamool Congress (TMC), accusing her of exhibiting frustration as defeat looms.
Speaking to ANI, Yadav emphasized adherence to proper electoral protocols under the Election Commission's watch. He remarked that the commission effectively addressed past irregularities, ensuring a transparent counting process. Meanwhile, repolling commenced in select booths due to concerns over EVM tampering during earlier voting phases.
Simultaneously, BJP's confidence surged as candidates like Goursundar Ghosh and Arjun Singh expressed their belief in a forthcoming victory across constituencies. Repolling incidents, marked by adhesive and inconsistency issues, spurred promises of a fair electoral process. As the state awaits results, the spotlight remains on the BJP's quest to dethrone Banerjee's administration.
