Election Result 2024: Mamata Banerjee Congratulates Akhilesh Yadav For Big Win In UP | ABP News

West Bengal, known for its intense political landscape, has long been a state where regional parties often outshine national contenders. In the 2019 Lok Sabha Elections, the Trinamool Congress (TMC), led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, emerged as the largest party, securing 18 seats. However, this was a significant drop from the 30 seats they won in 2014. Conversely, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) saw a remarkable surge, increasing its tally from just 2 seats in 2014 to 18 in 2019.

As the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections unfold, West Bengal remains a focal point due to its dynamic political shifts. Despite being part of the I.N.D.I.A. alliance, TMC has opted to contest all 42 seats independently, further intensifying the political competition.
