Celebrations have already started at the different Trinamool Congress party offices, including the area in front of the residence of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in South Kolkata, as from the trends it has become clear that the ruling party is all set to make a clean sweep on all the six Assembly constituencies.
Trinamool Congress leaders have started claiming that the results show that the voters have rejected the attempts by the Opposition parties to malign the state government over the rape and murder of a junior doctor of R.G. Kar Medical College & Hospital in Kolkata in August this year.
The bypolls for these six Assembly constituencies were conducted on November 13 and one person died in clashes on polling day.
The bypolls were conducted on these six Assembly constituencies as their erstwhile legislators got elected as Lok Sabha MPs in the General Elections this year.
