Legislative Assembly elections for 294 seats of the West Bengal Legislative Assembly are scheduled to be held between 27 March to 29 April 2021 in 8 phases.[1]
Background
Outlined in Article 168 of the Constitution of India, the West Bengal Legislative Assembly is the only house of the unicameral legislature of West Bengal and not a permanent body and subject to dissolution.[2] The tenure of the Legislative Assembly is five years from the date appointed for its first sitting unless dissolved sooner. Members of the Legislative Assembly are directly elected by the people. The tenure of current West Bengal Legislative Assembly is scheduled to end on 30 May 2021.[3]
In the previous elections in 2016, the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) retained its majority in the Legislative Assembly with 211 seats. The Indian National Congress won 44 seats and the Left Front won 33 seats fighting within an alliance. While the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha each managed to win only 3 of the 294 seats.[4] However, in the 2019 general elections TMC won 22 and the BJP won 18 of the 42 Lok Sabha seats in West Bengal.[5] Bagging 40 percent of the vote share, an increase from the previous time and in by-elections from 2016 to 2021, BJP had also increased their seats in the legislative assembly by 15 as of 2020.[6]
Issues
In 2019, the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Union Government passed the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA) in the Indian Parliament, promising citizenship to Hindu immigrants from Bangladesh and hoping to provide them with habilitation.[6][7] The BJP's Bengali booklet released in January 2020 claimed that the National Register of Citizens will be implemented to identify the undocumented migrants, but Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Christian, Jain and Parsi will be "shielded" by the Citizenship Amendment Act.[8][9]
The COVID-19 pandemic also became an election issue.[10][11] The Government of West Bengal was accused of "fudging" with the number of Coronavirus disease 2019 positive patients and death tolls by the opposition.[12]
In May 2020, Cyclone Amphan hit the state a year before elections.[13][10] After the passing away of the cyclone, widespread allegations of mismanagement[14] and relief scam were seen.[15][16] Protest broke out in various district of the state over these allegations.[17][18] The opposition made it an election issue ahead of the Assembly polls.[19][20] Rebellion and dissatisfaction of many Trinamool leaders are also likely to impact the elections.[21]
Schedule
Election schedule were announced on 26 February 2021 and the election will be held in 8 phases from 27 March 2021 to 29 April 2021 and votes will be counted on 2 May 2021.[22][23]
