In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, BJP had won 18 seats out of 42 seats. Therefore, the party has put a lot of emphasis on the assembly elections. This time the election has become TMC vs BJP. Here the alliance between the Congress, the Left, and the Indian Secular Front is fixed. Furfura Sharif's Indian Secular Front has been given 30 seats. According to sources, voting can take place in 6 to 7 stages in the state.
