Stage Set for By-elections in Six Assembly Constituencies

The stage is ready for by-elections in six Assembly constituencies in the state, scheduled to take place on 13 November.

The campaign for the by-elections will come to an end on Monday. The by-elections will be held in Sitai and Madarihat in north Bengal and Taldangra, Midnapore, Haroa and Naihati in south Bengal.

Haji Nurul Islam who had become an MLA from Haroa in the 2021 Assembly elections resigned and contested in the Lok Sabha election from Basirhat seat. He was elected but died recently.

The by-election for Basirhat Parliamentary seat will be announced later by the Election Commission.
