BJP MLA Suvendu Adhikari blamed the overconfidence of some party leaders for the defeat in the West Bengal Assembly elections. "As we did well in the first two poll phases in these parts of assembly segments, many of our leaders became smug and overconfident. They started believing that the BJP will secure 170-180 seats in the elections, but they did not do the groundwork. This cost us dearly," Adhikari said.
