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

The Election Commissioners, Sushil Chandra and Rajiv Kumar and the senior officials of ECI are also seen.

On January 28, 2021 Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury announced that seat-sharing talks between the Congress and Left Front had concluded for 193 seats and that the remaining 101 seats would be decided at a later point.[33][34] Out of the 193 seats agreed upon by 28 January, 92 went to Congress and 101 to the Left Front.[33] These 193 seats included agreements over all the 77 seats the Congress and Left Front had won in the 2016 election.[33] Left Congress and ISF announced that they will fight together in an alliance named as 'Sanyukta Morcha' from Brigade Rally on 28 February 2021.[35] ISF initially claimed that they have secured 30 seats from the Left Front's quota.[36] After the final seat sharing agreement was concluded, it was announced that the Left Front will contest on 165 seats, Congress will contest on 92 seats and ISF will contest on 37 seats.[37]

Left Front chairman Biman Bose announced candidates for first and second-phase elections on 5 March alongside Congress and ISF leaders leaving seats for them in the list.[38] Indian National Congress revealed its first list of 13 candidates for the first two phases on 6th March.[39] Left Front Announced its second list of candidates on 10th March comprising of several new and young faces from AISF, AIYF, SFI and DYFI along with some well-known veteran faces including ex ministers of Left Front govt and ex-MPs.[40] That day Biman Bose declared DYFI West Bengal state president Minakshi Mukherjee as the CPI(M) candidate for 'High-Profile' Nandigram (Vidhan Sabha constituency) seat which was kept vacant in the first list published on 5th March.[41] Congress revealed its second list of 34 candidates on 14th March.[42] ISF released list of their first set of 20 candidates on the same day.[43] Sanyukta Morcha announced 15 more candidates on 17th March consisting of 9 from the Left, 2 from Congress and 4 from ISF camp.[44] Congress revealed its third list of 39 candidates on 20th March,[45] and two more on 22nd March.

Election

These elections will be conducted amid the COVID-19 pandemic so the necessary guidelines will be issued by the Election Commission of India.[82]

Security preparations

After several instances of violence, threats and murders even before the polls were announced, the Election Commission of India and Home Ministry ordered twelve companies of central forces were be deployed in West Bengal from February 20. At least 125 more central troops were ordered to reach West Bengal on February 25 to ensure law and order in the poll-bound state. The Election commission said that forces will lay stress on area domination, especially in sensitive zones.[83]

60 companies of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), 30 companies of the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB), 25 companies of the Border Security Force (BSF) and five companies each of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP).[84]

Covid-19 guidelines

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide, the Election Commission of India issued various health guidelines for conducting the elections. The guidelines include use of masks, sanitisation of the polling booths, use of thermal scanners before entering the polling booths, maintaining social distancing, and so forth.[85] The number of maximum voters for each polling station has also been brought down to 1000 from 1500.[86]
