‘BJP, ECI looted over 100 seats’: Mamata refuses to back down as BJP breaches past majority in Bengal
TRinamool united states congress (TMC) supremo and outgoing w Bengal chief government minister Mamata Banerjee levelled vainglorious allegations against the Bharatiya Janata company (BJP) and the Election Commission of India (ECI), accusing them of “looting over 100 seats” and calling the saffron party’s historic landslide win in the state “an immoral victory”.Speaking to reporters in Kolkata, Banerjee said, “More than 100 seats, the BJP looted. The Election Commission is the BJP's commission.”“I complained to the CO and also Manoj Agrawal, but they are not doing anything. Do you think this is a victory? It is an immoral victory, not a moral victory. Whatever the Election Commission has done, along with the Central Forces and the PM & Home Minister, is totally illegal. It is loot, loot, loot. We will bounce back,” Banerjee, who remained in power for 15 years straight in Bengal, said. BJP’s historic entry in BengalThe saffron party breached Mamata Banerjee’s fortress in West Bengal and is set to form the government on its own in the state for the first time ever."The Lotus blooms in West Bengal! The 2026 West Bengal Assembly Elections will be remembered forever. People's power has prevailed and BJP's politics of good governance has triumphed," Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on X.Even as counting went on, TMC kept raising questions against the ECI.“ECI has abandoned even the faintest pretense of neutrality. After deliberately delaying and dragging out the counting process, it is now refusing to issue certificates even in constituencies where victories are clear – Diamond Harbour, Magrahat Purba, Magrahat Paschim, Kulpi, Raidighi, Patharpratima, Basanti, Bardhaman Uttar, and Sitai,” it wrote on X.During the counting process, Banerjee visited the Sakhawat Memorial counting hall in Kolkata. She said counting had stopped at several locations and again accused the Election Commission of India and central forces of acting unfairly.What’s the latest in Bengal?As of 8:02 pm, ECI trends showed that the BJP has won 113 seats and is leading in 93 others, taking its total to 206 seats. Meanwhile, the TMC has won 46 seats and is leading in 35 others., falling way behind the BJP with just 81 seats.The Congress has won 2 seats, Humayun Kabir’s AJUP has won 2 seats, the CPI(M) is leading in 1 seat, and the AISF is leading in 1 seat.
