The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) raced ahead in very early trends and was leading over the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) in at least 10 seats at 8:40 am as Election Commission of India (ECI) began counting votes for the West Bengal assembly elections on Monday.
The counting of votes began at 8 am.
The BJP was ahead in 14 seats while the chief minister Mamata Banerjee-led TMC was leading in nine constituencies, according to data by analytics portal PValue. These, however, were very early trends, with possibilities of change.
