In a video message released around noon on Monday, Banerjee expressed confidence that the initial trends would reverse in later rounds of counting. She alleged discrepancies in the reporting of results and claimed that the figures being circulated were inaccurate. According to her, the TMC was actually ahead in nearly 100 constituencies, but those numbers were not being properly reflected.
“The numbers being fed are fake,” Banerjee stated, adding that the real picture would emerge after 14 to 18 rounds of counting. She further alleged that both the BJP and the Election Commission of India were not displaying trends in seats where the TMC was performing well.
