Having won the Ballygunge assembly by-polls, Supriyo collected his certificate from the state election commission officials.

Notably, two-time BJP MP Supriyo had quit the party last year. The Ballygunge assembly seat fell vacant after the demise of state minister Subrata Mukerjee’s demise. Following Supriyo’s resignation, the Asansol Lok Sabha seat was also left vacant which necessitated the elections.

Polling was held for parliamentary constituency Asansol and assembly constituency Ballygunge in West Bengal on April 12.
