Bhabanipur bypoll result: Mamata Banerjee eyes massive win, BJP and Left struggle

Kolkata/IBNS: West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo, Mamata Banerjee, is set to storm into the assembly with a massive victory in Bhabanipur bypoll as her leads continue to amplify with every round of vote counting.

As per latest update, Banerjee is ahead of her nearest opponent from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Priyanka Tibrewal, by 33,982 votes after 11 rounds of counting.

The win is a must for the TMC supremo, who is yet to be elected to the assembly, to continue with her uninterrupted stint as the Chief Minister.

Reacting to the trend, senior TMC leader and Banerjee's trusted lieutenant, Firhad Hakim, tweeted, "This moment is the most special moment for each and every single person in #Bengal who firmly stood beside #MamataBanerjee in her journey, through thick and thin! People of Bhabanipur have chosen the leader of this nation, come 2024!"

The TMC is also leading in Samserganj and Jangipur, where polls were held on Oct 30.
