Complete paribartan, says TMC after panchayat polls victory
Kolkata, July 30: The victory in the panchayat elections for the Trinamool Congress was the completion of a full circle for the party after demolishing the Left Front in the state in 2011, senior minister Subrata Mukherjee said on Tuesday.
"The
call
for
political
change
given
by
Trinamool
supremo
and
West
Bengal
Chief
Minister
Mamata
Banerjee
two
years
ago
in
2011,
today
came
full
circle
with
the
victory
in
the
panchayat
elections,"
Mukherjee
said.
The ruling Trinamool Congress swept the three-tier panchayat elections capturing 13 out of the 17 zilla parishads, while the Congress put up a poor show getting just one in Murshidabad. The CPI(M) managed to win in two districts.
"The victory has shown that people are still with us, irrespective of conspiracies hatched by CPI(M) and Congress. The people have given them a fitting reply," he said.
