As the Trinamool Congress inches closer to a massive victory in Bengal, the man behind the party's success, poll strategist Prashant Kishor on Sunday announced his retirement from election management.

Talking exclusively with India Today TV, he said, "I have been thinking of quitting for too long and was looking for an opportunity, Bengal gave me that chance."

He had earlier said he would quit if BJP crossed 100 seats in the West Bengal Assembly Election.
