Kolkata, Sep 22 (TIWN) Embarrassing the Bharatiya Janata Party, BJP leader Rajib Banerjee said that West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will win with a huge margin and it would have been better if the party had not fielded any candidate against her.
"The people gave her a mandate and she has come back to power with 213 seats. She is contesting from Bhabanipur and the Congress has decided not to put up any candidate against her. We cannot or should not ignore the people's verdict and the people want her to be the chief minister of the state. She is going to win by a huge margin in Bhabanipur. It would have been the right gesture if the BJP had also stayed away from the election. They should not have fielded any candidate against her," the former Trinamool Congress minister who switched over to the BJP just before the assembly polls said. Banerjee who lost in this election to the Trinamool Congress was also critical about Suvendu Adhikari's approach towards the chief minister.
