BJP has won four seats while CPI (M) winning a single seat. The AAP, a new entrant this time has failed to open any account so far.
Party’s state secretary Jasvinder Singh accused the state government of functioning according to the wishes of right-wing communal elements, and not as per the constitution.

We have demanded that the District Magistrate take strong action against such misappropriation of funds and cut money,” the Secretary of the North Dinajpur CPI (M) committee, Anowarul Hoque, said.
“The only avenue of judicial intervention to protect the rights of the media has also been limited,” the party said.
The CPI (M) editorial said the 'Karnataka Protection of Right to Freedom of Religion Bill’ follows the pattern set by similar laws passed in other BJP-ruled states.
In his reply, Mandaviya said the Government will soon come out with a policy on research and development in the medical sector.
The CPI (M) has also decided to observe 1st December as a day of protest against “attacks on religious minorities and their Constitutional rights.”
