A recently completed poll had historic results. Deb declared during the swearing-in ceremony of newly elected corporators of the Agartala Municipal Corporation at Rabindra Satabarshiki Bhawan in Agartala, “We received 60% votes (59%) in the civic polls and our vote share would be 70% in the future assembly elections.”
According to the CM, the BJP received 43% of the vote in the 2018 assembly elections, 49% in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, and nearly 60% in the civic elections in November, indicating a consistent expansion in the party’s support base. “
Despite high attendance and turnout, they said nothing significant happened. They have disrespected the voters by stating this. People have begun to realise this, and in the upcoming assembly elections, they will cut their vote share to below 8%,” Deb said.
