Mamata Banerjee’s party All India Trinamool Congress (TMC) has once again made its strong hold felt in the politics of West Bengal. After the recent political developments and setbacks during the assembly elections, TMC has surprised the opposition parties with a spectacular performance in the Bar Council elections. In this election, the party has demonstrated its political power brilliantly and has registered a resounding victory on 15 seats out of total 23 seats. After this big success, the discussion has once again intensified in political circles about how strong the party’s influence still is at the grassroots level.
TMC’s resounding victory in Bar Council elections and the mathematics of statistics
When the results of this important Bar Council election held in West Bengal came out, everyone was surprised. According to the election results, in this contest for a total of 23 seats, the lawyers and panels supported by Mamata Banerjee have captured a total of 15 seats. On the other hand, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and other opposition parties have been left far behind in this election. According to the data, BJP was limited to only 3 seats in this contest, while the remaining seats went to other candidates. This bumper victory of TMC in this prestigious election of lawyers is no less than a big tonic for the party workers and leaders.
Sanjeevani for the party after the shock of assembly elections
Political analysts believe that these results of the Bar Council elections are very important for TMC amid the ups and downs in the electoral field for some time. This body of lawyers holds a special importance in the judicial and administrative system of the state. In such a situation, winning such a large number of seats among this professional and intellectual class proves that the party’s hold at the grassroots level and ideologically is still quite strong. The unity shown by the advocates supporting Mamata Banerjee’s policies and party has deflated all the claims of the opposition parties.
A big blow for BJP and Left
These election results are being considered a big blow for the Bharatiya Janata Party and Left parties which are trying to establish their roots in the politics of West Bengal. BJP has been adopting an aggressive stance against TMC in the state for a long time, but getting only 3 seats in professional elections like Bar Council shows that their hold among the professional class has still not reached the level that was expected. Political experts also say that such elections may not be the elections of the general public, but they definitely reflect the political mood of the state and the thinking of the intellectual class.
Far reaching impact on future politics
There is an atmosphere of celebration in the TMC camp after this spectacular success in the Bar Council elections. Party leaders say that this victory is proof that the public and the intellectual class still have full faith in the leadership of Mamata Banerjee. In the coming days, when other local body or regional elections will be held in the state, TMC will definitely get the psychological benefit of this victory. It is time for the opposition parties to introspect as to why they could not strengthen their position among this large section of professionals and lawyers. Overall, this result on the political scene of Bengal has once again proved that it will not be easy for any opposition party to underestimate Mamata Banerjee’s political strategy and ground hold.
