Mamata Banerjee's Policies Triumph in West Bengal Elections
The TMC countered PM Modi's assertion that high voter turnout in West Bengal's elections indicated a desire for change, claiming the turnout signaled strong support for Mamata Banerjee. With a nearly 90% turnout, TMC predicts winning up to 134 seats out of 152, rejecting the BJP's narrative of change.

In a sharp rebuttal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's claims, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Thursday insisted that the high voter turnout in West Bengal's polls was a strong endorsement of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's regime.
TMC spokesperson Kunal Ghosh asserted that the surge in polling, reaching nearly 90% in some districts, reflects firm support for Banerjee and her developmental agenda, not a call for change. Ghosh projected that TMC could secure a minimum of 125 seats, potentially rising to 134, signifying rejection of the BJP's narrative.
The TMC further argued that increased voter participation, especially among women, backed their policies and charged that the BJP misrepresenting the data was an attempt at political survival.
