West bengal elections: The stage is completely set for the battle for the second round of assembly elections in West Bengal. Voting is to be held on 142 seats on Wednesday and this time the Election Commission has made such elaborate security arrangements that have rarely been seen before. More than three and a half lakh central forces personnel have been fielded for this voting to be held in seven districts. This includes soldiers from CRPF to ITBP and CISF. If we talk about Kolkata alone, there is a guard of 35 thousand soldiers there, so that even the bird cannot hit it.

NIA entered the field for the first time

This time, for the first time, the help of NIA is also being taken to make the security more impenetrable. Every nook and corner is being monitored from a hi-tech central control room built in Kolkata. Every polling booth will be monitored live through CCTV and more than 6 thousand quick response teams have been deployed to deal with any irregularities. The march of soldiers is continuing in sensitive areas so that voters can go out of their homes without any fear.

West bengal elections: Names missing from voter list raise political temperature

This time a new and big controversy has arisen in the elections and that is the missing names of lakhs of people from the voter list. In North and South 24 Parganas as well as in districts like Howrah and Hooghly, the names of a large number of voters have been removed from the list. Experts believe that this disturbance can have a direct impact on the results of about 25 seats. There is a lot of allegations and counter-allegations going on in the political circles regarding this.

West bengal elections: Grand match in Bhawanipur and everyone’s eyes

Bhawanipur seat of Kolkata remains the hottest seat this time. Here there is a face-to-face contest between Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and senior BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari. Interestingly, this high-profile seat is also affected by the issue of deletion of names from the voter list. While Trinamool Congress is calling it a conspiracy, BJP is rejecting these allegations outright. The competition here is so tough that the price of each vote has increased.

Mathematics of victory and defeat in 24 Parganas and Nadia

64 seats of South and North 24 Parganas are considered to be the key to power in Bengal. While the equations are different in South 24 Parganas, in Nadia district the votes of Matua and Namashudra communities will decide victory or defeat. This time BJP has put its full strength in these areas. From the Prime Minister to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath have held massive rallies here. Issues like NRC and CAA are floating in the air and it is not easy to gauge the public mood this time.

What will be the attitude of women and Hindu voters?

West bengal elections: According to political experts, this time the elections are revolving around Hindu and women voters. These two classes can prove to be game changers this time. If the inclination of women voters leans towards one side, the results can be shocking. Voting tomorrow in this Mahakumbh of power in Bengal will decide which direction the state’s politics will take in the future.
