The political landscape of West Bengal is witnessing a dramatic shift as the Bharatiya Janata Party appears set to form its first government in the state, ending over 15 years of rule by Mamata Banerjee and the Trinamool Congress. Union Home Minister Amit Shah had predicted an early counting win, while BJP leaders like Suvendu Adhikari expressed confidence. As counting triggered clashes and allegations of manipulation, the Bengal verdict is set to reshape national politics ahead of upcoming elections.
