TMC supremo and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said the Karnataka poll results are a "lesson for tomorrow", in an apparent reference to the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
Taking a swipe at the BJP's "double engine" rhetoric over its defeat in the Karnataka polls, the Trinamool Congress on Saturday said the people of the southern state rejected the "trouble engine" government and asserted that the brute authoritarian and majoritarian politics were vanquished.
The ruling party of West Bengal, however, came out with a guarded response regarding the Congress's victory saying the people decided to reject the BJP.
TMC supremo and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said the Karnataka poll results are a "lesson for tomorrow", in an apparent reference to the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
The Congress crossed the 113-seat mark in the election, the majority required to form the government, in the 224-member Assembly for which counting of votes took place on Saturday. According to the Election Commission website, the party was leading or winning in 136 seats.
