Reacting to party's impressive p[erformance, BJP vice president Dilip Ghosh said that the results of Tripura Municipal polls expose the "hollowness" of TMC's claims of having made inroads in the northeastern state. He said that people there have faith in Bharatiya Janata Party.

"The civic poll results are on expected lines. The TMC did not have any chance to open its account in Tripura, they only made noises. This verdict shows hired people from West Bengal cannot help a party create a base in a state, which has faith in the BJP," Ghosh said.
