With people’s blessings, we promise to continue taking Bengal to greater heights!”

TMC leader Derek O’Brien also claimed victory of all party candidates in West Bengal. “Beyond the headlines of TMC’s HUGE WIN in 4 bypolls, some nuggets neck and neck fight for 2nd/3rd position between BJP and CPIM. BJP lost in Minister of State for Home’s own booth. Margin in Dinhata: from minus 57 in May to 1.5 lakh. Shah ain’t going to Bengal till next Diwali?” Derek tweeted.

The counting of votes for Gosaba and Santipur assembly seats is still underway.

Santipur and Dinhata seats fell vacant after BJP MP Jagannath Sarkar and Nishith Pramanik resigned from the assembly, respectively. Whereas, elections on the other two seats are being held as All India Trinamool Congress’ (TMC) MLAs Kajal Sinha (Khardaha) and Jayanta Naskar (Gosaba) died due to Covid. 

TMC leader Sovandeb Chattopadhyay, who had resigned from the Bhabanipur constituency to facilitate Mamata Banerjee’s election to the Assembly, is fighting from Khardaha.

The TMC registered a landslide victory in polls held earlier this year, winning 213 seats in the 294-member West Bengal assembly. The BJP emerged as the second-largest party with 77 seats.
