Following the recent Assembly election results in West Bengal, a series of viral posts on social media platform X claim that Congress workers have reclaimed party offices allegedly seized by the Trinamool Congress (TMC). Reports indicate that at least three offices in Nadia district and Barrackpore have been reopened by Congress members, with videos circulating that show party flags being reinstalled and supporters gathering outside these premises. One post emphasized the idea of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) restoring democracy in the state, suggesting that the electoral defeat of the TMC has reduced fear among opposition workers. However, these claims lack independent verification, and there has been no official confirmation from Congress regarding the alleged takeovers. In a related context, senior TMC leader Jawhar Sircar commented on the party's electoral setback, noting that Mamata Banerjee's leadership has inadvertently strengthened the BJP's presence in West Bengal. He highlighted that many opposition leaders have shifted allegiance to the BJP for political protection, indicating a significant shift in the state's political landscape. As of now, Congress has not publicly addressed the viral claims about the reopening of their offices.
