Former Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras returned to office on Sunday after his left-leaning Syriza Party secured a comfortable majority in Greek Parliament. With more than ninety two percent of the vote counted, Syriza Party got 35 percent of the vote and 145 seats out the 300-member Greek Parliament, while conservative New Democracy received around 28 percent of vote and 75 seats, according to Katoikos Europe.

Tsipras resigned in August and called the snap elections after he faced revolt within his party over his acceptance of the Euro bailout deal. The snap poll came barely nine months after the Syriza party swept to power in January, according to Xinhua. It is the Syriza Party's second victory within a year.

Syriza's coalition partner Independent Greeks (ANEL) has received nearly four percent of the vote and 10 seats. Tsipras on Sunday night announced that he will form a coalition government with Independent Greeks.

The 41-year-old leader termed his party's success in elections as "victory of people."

"In Europe today, Greece and the Greek people are synonymous with resistance and dignity, and this struggle will be continued together for another four years," Tsipras said in a victory speech to his party's supporters in Athens, according to BBC.

"We have difficulties ahead, but we are also on firm ground. We won't recover from the struggle by magic, but it can happen with hard work," he said.

Tsipras's main rival and conservative New Democracy leader Vangelis Meimarakis conceded defeat and asked Tsipras to stake claim quickly. "I congratulate him and call on him to form the government that is necessary, and bring the (proposal) to parliament," Meimarakis said, according to Al Jazeera.
