Underscores effort to appeal across communities and strengthen support @ Himanta to contest from Jalukbari, 19 MLAs dropped in Assam
ON Thursday, the BJP released its second list of 111 candidates for the West Bengal Assembly elections, featuring a diverse mix of professionals and social backgrounds.
Avoiding experimental choices, the party has strategically combined seasoned political figures with representatives from various walks of life, including actors, lawyers, retired police officers, former MPs, and survivors of political violence. The announcement underscores a deliberate effort to appeal across communities and strengthen support ahead of the polls.
