Storming the last Opposition citadel in the east, the BJP Monday trounced the ruling TMC in West Bengal to end Mamata Banerjee’s 15-year rule and returned to power in Assam at the head of a landslide for a third consecutive term. The BJP’s victory in West Bengal, 15 years after Banerjee single-handedly breached the Red bastion to end the Left Front’s uninterrupted 34-year rule, was stunning in its sweep and scale. The BJP retained its stronghold in North Bengal and breached the TMC strongholds of South Bengal, including Kolkata, North 24 Parganas and South 24 Parganas.
