Mamata says TMC will cross 200 seats in Bengal polls, accuses BJP of manipulation

“Banerjee said that the TMC will win more than 200 seats this time. She also said that exit polls were nothing but an attempt to manipulate the stock market. She accused the BJP of scamming people with fictitious exit polls and making huge money. They did it in 2021, 2024 and are now repeating the same thing,” a senior TMC leader said.

The results of the recently held West Bengal Assembly elections will be announced on Monday.

“She also said that not a single general observer or police observer (appointed by the Election Commission) would be able to get away. They are thinking that they will be able to run away to their own states after May 4. She warned of legal action against each one of them who indulged in anti-constitutional acts. She said that they would be dragged to court,” said another leader present at the meeting.

TMC MP and the party’s national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee, who also addressed the meeting, said that the party would return to power for the fourth time, winning more seats compared to 2021. The party had won 213 seats in the last Assembly elections, while the BJP had bagged 77 seats.
