Trinamool Congress won comfortably against Bharatiya Janata Party – with a win in 213 constituencies.- In West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee is set to return for her third consecutive term as Chief Minister.
- There are 294 seats in the Bengal state assembly, the polling for which took place through eight phases between March 27 and April 29.
While her party, the Trinamool Congress got 213 seats, Banerjee herself lost to Suvendu Adhikari — her former aide who switched over to BJP just months before the election — in Nandigram by over 1,700 votes.
The election campaigns in the state, held amidst a raging second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, have come under much scrutiny and criticism. The campaigns saw some fierce competition between the two states, with much being said about each other.
There are 294 seats in the Bengal state assembly, the polling for which took place through eight phases between March 27 and April 29. Counting is underway in 272 of those 294 seats.
