Kolkata, May 13, 2023 (PPI-OT): The West Bengal Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee, has said that Karnataka results are the beginning of the end of the BJP in the entire nation. West Bengal in 2021 had shown the way to the people of Karnataka in 2023 to prove that the BJP is not invincible, leaders of the state’s ruling Trinamool Congress said.

“First West Bengal showed the way. From Bengal to Bengaluru, people have started speaking on the same lines. In the near future, there are Assembly elections in a couple of other states. The BJP will also be defeated there. Finally, in 2024 BJP will be thrown out of power by the people of the country,” she said.

Trinamool’s national General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee said: “You can vote for anyone, by exercising your democratic right. Just defeat the BJP. This is what our Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had been saying again and again. That has exactly happened in Karnataka. We are happy. West Bengal showed the way in 2021, which has been replicated in Karnataka.”

He also said that voters’ polarisation by using religious sentiments cannot be the strategy of any political party. “The BJP had tried to mislead people again and again using those religious sentiments. I am happy that Bengal has shown the way and Karnataka has replicated that,” he said.
