Kharagpur Sadar

The BJP on Wednesday named Bengali actor Hiran Chatterjee, who recently joined the party, as its candidate from Kharagpur Sadar assembly seat, ending speculations whether party's state party chief and MP Dilip Ghosh would be fielded from there.

Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress score a three-on-three, winning all three seats in assembly bypolls in West Bengal. "The BJP's arrogance has cost them," Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said.

Results for bypolls to three West Bengal Assembly constituencies -- Karimganj, Kharagpur Sadar and Kaliaganj -- will be announced on Thursday. Counting of votes began at 8 am. The results will be declared amid a strain between the supporters of the Trinamool Congress and BJP over an attack on a BJP candidate during voting on Monday.
