BJP takes Trinamool's Bengal by storm; Puts up swashbuckling performance with 18 seats

Kolkata, May 24 (UNI) The BJP's juggernaut rolled on imperiously in Bengal as the lotus bloomed in 18 Lok Sabha and four Assembly bypoll seats with 40.2 per cent vote share.
The BJP's sterling display sent the Left Front to the abyss of oblivion, decimated the Congress to mere two and restricted the ruling Trinamool Congress to 22, a slump by 12 seats.
The BJP romped home in 18 Lok Sabha seats, which is an astronomical jump from two in 2014, and also notched up facile victories in four Assembly bypoll seats of Darjeeling, Habibpur, Krishnaganj and Bhatpara.
There is no row at position 0.
