Bhabanipur By-Election 2021 Result HIGHLIGHTS: Mamata Banerjee Leads Priyanka Tibrewal With Over 58K Votes

Background

The voting for Bhabanipur bypolls took place on Thursday, September 30 and the D-Day is here to decide Mamata Banerjee's fate if she will be able to retain the West Bengal Chief Minister's chair or not.

The counting of votes to the crucial by-poll to the Bhabanipur seat in south Kolkata will be held today amid tight security.

Votes will also be counted for the by-polls held in Jangipur and Samserganj assembly constituencies in the Murshidabad district of the state and one constituency in Odisha.

A moderate turnout was recorded in the by-election to the Bhabanipur assembly seat, where West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is contesting to retain her post, as polling in the high-profile constituency in south Kolkata passed off peacefully on Thursday.

Around 53.32 per cent turnout was recorded in the seat till 5 PM. 

A high voting rate at 78.60 per cent and 76.12 per cent was recorded in Murshidabad's Samserganj and Jangipur seats respectively, where polls had to be countermanded during the April-May assembly elections following the death of two candidates.

A total of 6,97,164 voters were eligible to exercise their franchise in the three constituencies.

Banerjee, who is also the Trinamool Congress supremo, is pitted against BJP's Priyanka Tibrewal and CPI(M)'s Srijib Biswas in Bhabanipur. Banerjee, a voter of the constituency, cast her vote at Mitra Institution school in the area.

The Bhabanipur by-poll has become a prestige battle for Banerjee, who is presently not an MLA and has to become a member of the state legislature by November 5.

The bypoll in Bhabanipur was called following the resignation of Banerjee's party leader Sobhandeb Chattopadhyay, who stepped down to make way for her.
