The verdict will be out on Tuesday on the high stakes by-polls in Bengal, Uttar Pradesh and Kerala. By-polls were held in 10 Assembly seats in West Bengal on Saturday. The prestige battle is in Belgachia East, where Ramola Chakroborty, widow of former transport minister Subhas Chakraborty, is pitted against Sujit Bose. The results will have politically wide-ranging implications in Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal, where the Left Front is on the defensive in the face of an aggressive Trinamool Congress and rising Maoist violence. In Kerala, the ruling LDF has come under a lot of criticism over the past year over land scams.
