While explaining the contest, he said, “There were seven on their side and seven on our side.” He further said that another representative also contested the election and that the person was associated with the other group.
The Chief Minister described the situation as challenging for the BJP.
He said the eventual result showed that voters understood the issue. He also said advocates at the court understood the situation and chose the BJP’s candidates.

Bar Council Victory a ‘Kickstart’
Saha said the election result would mark a “kickstart” for the BJP in the days ahead.
“From here, our kickstart has begun for the coming days,” he said.
