A neck and neck fight continued throughout the day in Tripura, with CPI
(M) leading initially, however, the BJP soon surged ahead.
The Congress
could not even manage to win a seat in the state even as its candidate
Limison D. Sangma was leading in Raksamgre during the initial counting
Full List of All Winning Candidates (MLAs)
Of the 59 Assembly seats, the BJP and its ally Indigenous People's Front
of Tripura (IPFT) bagged 43. The BJP won 35 seats and the IPFT won
eight.
The CPM could get only 16 seats and the Congress drew a blank.
This marks the end of Manik Sarkar's two decades as Tripura chief
minister.
For the ruling CPM, the results came as a shocker
Some of the big losers of the CPM are the outgoing deputy speaker of
state Assembly Pabitra Kar, Power Minister Manik Dey, Tribal Welfare
Minister Aghore Debbarma and Forests Minister Naresh Jamatia.
The CPM members shied away from speaking with the media, but issued a
statement conceding defeat and contending that the BJP, apart from
other factors, utilised massive deployment of money and other resources
to influence the elections
Tripura has been among the Left Front's longstanding bastions, which
is why its drubbing at the hands of the BJP-IPFT alliance marks the
beginning of a new chapter in the state's polity. In the state Assembly
elections since 1983, the BJP had never polled more than 2 percent
votes, except in 1998 when it polled 5.87 percent votes.
The Congress, which had won 10 seats
and 36.53 percent votes in the last Assembly polls, got a mere 1.8
percent of votes and could not win a single seat.
