On Babul Supriyo's "No Class" Jab After Poll Win, CPM Leader's Comeback

Babul Supriyo, who switched from BJP to Trinamool last year, won the Ballygunge bypoll by a margin of 20228 votes. Saira Shah Halim finished second

In a sharp comeback to Trinamool Congress leader Babul Supriyo's remark after he won the Ballygunge bypoll, CPM leader Saira Shah Halim, who finished second, has said she and her party "believe in a classless society" and anyone judging her as having "no class" knows what he is up against.  We believe in a classless society,where rich and poor will not be differentiated by the wealth and property they own.Anyone who judges me as having "no class", knows what he is fighting against. Even after a filthy deplorable campaign full of lies & deceit @CPIM_WESTBENGAL & Saira Shah Halim shows no class, forget shame• She is talking the same gutter language even after people threw them away in favour of @AITCofficial • BTW, her party remains a BIG ZERO in Assembly Wish to see the 🤡 faces of those jealous BJP 'Netas' who never acknowledged my hard work for a place I love-Asansol & mocked me by saying, "Even a Matchstick standing for @BJP4India wud win in Asansol•Love you Asansol for serving them a Slap in a platter #RevengeIsAPureEmotion The @CPIM_WESTBENGAL candidate frm Ballygunge continues to make unsavoury personal attacks on me on TV•But I shall continue to ignore her like I hv ignored her & her party's dirty filthy propaganda which a large majority rejected, hence @AITCofficial & me are the winners😀1/n

Following his victory in the Assembly bypoll, results of which were declared Saturday, Mr Supriyo launched a scathing attack on Ms Halim and accused them of running a "filthy" campaign in the run up to the election.
