Today, the BJP-led NDA government is in power in all the states surrounding Maa Ganga. From Gangotri to Gangasagar, lotus is blooming all across – from Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar to Bengal." The remarks drew loud applause from the audience.Recalling the 2013 Varanasi MomentModi also revisited the circumstances of his 2013 visit to Kashi (Varanasi) to file his nomination and campaign for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. He recounted being asked why he chose Varanasi, to which he had responded: "Na mujhe kisi ne bulaya hai, na mujhe kisi ne bheja hai… maa ganga ne mujhe bulaya hai" (Nobody has called me, nobody has sent me, Maa Ganga has called me).The Prime Minister said he was experiencing the same feeling once again, describing the current political moment as a continuation of that spiritual and electoral journey.BJP's Record Mandates and GovernanceModi attributed the party's string of victories in Assembly elections over the past two years to the BJP's commitment to public service and good governance. He said voters were rewarding the party with record mandates because they could see through the party's "genuine commitment" to the people.This comes amid a broader consolidation of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) governments across the Hindi heartland and eastern India, with the Bengal result marking a significant milestone in the party's eastward expansion strategy.What This SignalsThe speech underscores the BJP's effort to frame its electoral dominance not merely in political terms but through a cultural and spiritual narrative centred on the Ganga corridor. As the party looks ahead to upcoming state and national elections, Modi's invocation of the Ganga belt signals a continued emphasis on civilisational identity as a campaign anchor.

He did not rule out concerns over Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), noting that "many people are saying that there are errors in EVM, some are saying it was fully charged," but deferred to counting agents on the matter. Trinamool's Reyat Hossain Sarkar secured a win in the Bhagawangola Assembly seat, one of the few bright spots for the party in the early count.TMC MP Rachana Banerjee struck a more optimistic note, telling IANS that the party remained hopeful as counting was still underway. She also flagged what she described as an unusually slow counting process. "There's a lot of time left, counting is very slow as we all know, as this never happens; usually the results become clear around 2 p.m.," Banerjee said, adding, "We are still hopeful."Mamata Banerjee's Video MessageChief Minister Mamata Banerjee released a video message on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) during the counting, claiming that "ultimately Trinamool Congress will have the last laugh." She urged all party candidates and counting agents to remain at their respective counting centres until the final round was completed.In the video, Mamata alleged that the BJP's strategy was to show its candidates ahead in early rounds — a pattern she said she had flagged as early as Sunday. "In the initial rounds, it will be shown that the BJP candidates are ahead in a majority of the assembly constituencies. I heard that in almost 100 assembly constituencies, they have stopped counting after the first two to three rounds," she said.Allegations Against ECI and Central ForcesThe Chief Minister also levelled serious allegations against the Election Commission of India, accusing it of acting "on its own whims and fancies" and misusing both Central and state forces during the election process. She claimed that a number of voters had been "deleted" during the special intensive revision process.Mamata further alleged that Central forces had harassed and assaulted TMC workers in several parts of the state, and that Trinamool Congress candidates were leading in approximately 100 additional seats that were not being officially announced. "They are feeding total misinformation," she said.What Happens NextWith counting still underway across constituencies, the final seat tally was expected to become clearer by evening. Mamata's appeal to her cadre — "Fight till the end like tigers" — reflected the high stakes for a party that has governed West Bengal for over a decade. The outcome will determine whether TMC retains power or cedes ground to a resurgent BJP in one of India's most politically consequential states.

R. Ambedkar. Despite heavy deployment of central forces, Mamata Banerjee will definitely win," Prasad said.He added, "Let the full results come first; the complete discussion will be held afterwards." The remarks reflect the broader opposition narrative that central force deployment in the state was intended to intimidate voters rather than ensure free and fair polling.Early Counting Trends: A Neck-and-Neck BattleAs of 10 am on counting day, trends were available for 176 of 293 assembly constituencies in West Bengal. The BJP held an initial lead in 90 seats, while the TMC was ahead in 82 seats. The Indian National Congress (Congress) and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI-M) candidates were leading in two seats each.Notably, the high-profile Bhabanipur Assembly constituency in South Kolkata — where Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is contesting against BJP's Suvendu Adhikari — had not yet shown any trend as of 10 am.Key Candidates Leading and TrailingAmong prominent BJP leaders showing early leads were Suvendu Adhikari, Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly, from Nandigram constituency in East Midnapore district; former national Vice President and state BJP president Dilip Ghosh from Kharagpur (Sadar) in West Midnapore; fashion designer-turned-politician Agnimitra Paul from Asansol (Dakshin) in West Burdwan; and journalist-turned-politician Swapan Dasgupta.On the TMC side, state Women and Child Development and Social Welfare Minister Dr Sashi Panja was reportedly trailing marginally from the Shyampukur constituency.Congress and CPI-M Hold Pockets in Minority DistrictsThe two constituencies where Congress candidates were leading — Malatipur and Mothabari — are both located in minority-dominated Malda district. Mausam Benazir Noor, a former Congress Lok Sabha member and former TMC Rajya Sabha member who returned to Congress ahead of the assembly polls, was leading from Malatipur.CPI-M candidates were ahead in Jalangi and Domkal constituencies, both in minority-dominated Murshidabad district. This comes amid broader Left Front attempts to reclaim ground in its traditional strongholds after years of decline.What to Watch as Counting ProgressesWith constituency-wise counting rounds ranging between a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 26, the final picture is expected to crystallise over several hours. The Bhabanipur result, once available, will be among the most closely watched outcomes of the day, given the political stakes for both Banerjee and Adhikari.
