Earlier media reports claimed that Banerjee won the seat by 1200 margin.
However, the TMC itself later tweeted: "The counting process for Nandigram has not been completed. Please do not speculate."
During a press conference, Banerjee said, "Don't worry for Nandigram, for struggle you have to sacrifice something. I struggled for Nandigram because I fought a movement. It's ok. Let the Nandigram people give whatever verdict they want, I accept that."
