The West Bengal polls are shaping into a fierce political contest. As the BJP mounts a serious challenge to Mamata Banerjee’s TMC, the issues of jobs, development, and security dominate the narrative. The West Bengal polls also highlight questions of illegal migration, Bengali Asmita, and governance failures. From Sandeshkhali to RG Kar, and from communal riots to infrastructure apathy, the West Bengal polls will decide whether voters stick with TMC or seek change with BJP. Oneindia’s Pankaj Mishra brings you ground voices with Upamanyu Bhattacharya, a BJP leader from the state.
