The West Bengal Assembly Elections 2026 have entered an important phase, drawing attention due to the scale of the contest and participation of major political parties. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and the All India Trinamool Congress (TMC) are seeking to retain power, while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is aiming to expand its presence in the state.
One of the significant stages of the election is Phase 2 voting, which covers over 140 constituencies. These areas include several regions where different parties have traditionally performed strongly, making the outcome in these seats important for the overall results.
Both parties have intensified their campaigns, focusing on issues such as governance, development, welfare schemes, and public services. Campaign activities have included rallies, public meetings, and outreach programs across various constituencies.
The election process is being closely followed as it progresses through different phases. The results will determine the next government in West Bengal.
