Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has called for the dismissal of Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, after she stated she would not resign following her party's loss in the recent state assembly elections. Sarma criticized Banerjee's claim that the election results were manipulated, stating that the country cannot be governed by her whims. In the elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured 206 of the 293 seats, while Banerjee's Trinamool Congress won only 80 seats, a significant decrease from their previous tally of 215 in 2021. Banerjee has accused the BJP of stealing nearly 100 seats and has alleged collusion between the central government and the Election Commission of India. She insists that she has not lost the mandate and will not resign, stating, 'This is not how democracy works.' Sarma's comments reflect a growing political tension in West Bengal following the election results.
