Supriyo Bhattacharya on election trends 

JMM leer talking about current trends in election results said, “ trends are satisfactory. If you look at whole election you will see margin of winning and losing is very less. This is because many parties were contesting in a small state. We (JMM) were anyway re with our allies, but re were many or parties contesting which include BJP, AJSU, JVM and ors. So many parties contesting elections have divided votes. But we will tell you one thing very comfortably, BJP during ir campaign h said ‘65paar’ (Over 65), But w I think y said it for us.”

“People are fearing ruling party because of decisions like passing CAA. PM Modi at Ramlila Maidan h said that NRC has t even been implemented yet, people don’t need to fear. But Home Minister on December 10 in Lok Sabha said that CAA will be passed, and I will bring NRC on same floor of house. On top of that, he repeated same thing on December 11 in Rajya Sabha too. This is clear that people want to save Constitution, y want to save ir identity. first referendum of this has been given by Jharkhand to whole nation in form of a signal,” he ded.
