The West Bengal panchayat poll results are out and the CPM has lost out in zila parishad elections in Singur and Nandigram, for the first time in two decades. These were the regions that witnessed protests of the state government's land acquisition for industrial projects. Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress has won all zila parishad seats in Nandigram, Haldia and Singur.
Alok Raj stands vindicated, but the CPM is searching for ways to hide its embarrassment.
