In a surprising turn of events during the West Bengal elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has taken a commanding lead, reportedly ahead in over 190 seats. This has led to jubilant celebrations among BJP supporters, who chanted slogans of ‘Jai Shree Ram’ outside the residence of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in Kolkata. As the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) faces a potential defeat, Banerjee has called on her party members to remain at counting centers. She expressed concerns over alleged electoral fraud, stating that counting has been halted in about 100 seats where the TMC claims to be leading. Banerjee accused the Election Commission of India (ECI), the central government, and police of collusion in suppressing results. She urged her party workers not to lose hope, asserting that they would prevail by sunset.
