SILCHAR, April 9 - Claiming that Trinamool Congress will win all the 42seats in West Bengal in the Lok Sabha election, Municipal and Urban Development Minister-cum-Mayor of Kolkata, Firhad Hakim urged voters of Barak Valley to support his party candidates here as well.

Addressing a public meeting in Silchar on Monday, Hakim said, �TMC will win all the seats in West Bengal.

We have fielded candidates for eight seats across Assam and Barak Valley. The voters should elect the two TMC candidates in Silchar and Karimganj seats and strengthen our hands.�

He was quick to add that TMC will play a decisive role in the formation of the next government at the Centre.
