Union home minister Amit Shah has claimed that BJP will win more than 50 out of 60 seats that went to the polls in the first two phases of the West Bengal Assembly polls.
Addressing a campaign rally in Sitalkuchi on Friday, Shah also asserted that the state’s chief minister Mamata Banerjee is herself losing from Nandigram, where she was pitted against BJP’s Suvendu Adhikari.
“(In the first two phases), lotus has bloomed. Remember my words. BJP has won more than 50 out of 60 seats. Didi, it is your time to go. Now, you have no hope. Didi is herself losing from Nandigram,” said Shah.
