Background
In the previous assembly election in 2011, the All India Trinamool Congress, under the leadership of Mamata Banerjee, won a majority and ended the 34-year rule of the Left Front government. During 2011 election, the main theme of TMC was paribartan (meaning "change"), implying it was time to change the Left Front reign of 34-years in the state. However, during the five year rule of TMC, urban population, in particular, were in general unhappy with the changes made by the government.[3] Also, newspapers reported that chief minister Banerjee has been only trying to consolidate votes from the sizable Muslim minority.[4]
Prior to the West Bengal elections, on 3 January 2016, a Muslim mob turned violent and vandalized Kaliachak Police station, block development office and public property in Kaliachak, Malda district.[5][6] Mamata Banerjee's government was severely criticised for not handling the situation better.[7][8][9]
In January 2016, the Election Commission of India urged the central government to allow it to carry out a limited delimitation exercise in West Bengal to ensure voting rights to people who came to India following the exchange of enclaves between India and Bangladesh.[10] It is speculated that the BJP will field more Muslim candidates in Bengal elections this time.[11] As per updated voter list for the year 2016 published by the Election Commission of India in January 2016, West Bengal has surpassed the rest of the country in elector-population ratio with 0.68. The final electoral roll in West Bengal for 2016 with 6.55 crore voters has 3.39 crore male and 3.16 crore female voters.[12] The expected rise in number of voters has made West Bengal's elector-population ratio most efficient in the country next to Tamilnadu.[13]
Religion data
As of 2011 census, Hinduism is the religion in West Bengal followed by 70.54% of the total population,[15][16] while Muslims comprise 27.01% of the total population, being the second-largest community as also the largest minority group.[17] Sikhism, Christianity, Buddhism and other religions make up the remainder.[18] Buddhism remains a prominent religion in the Himalayan region of the Darjeeling hills, and almost the entirety of West Bengal's Buddhist population are from this region.
Major issues
Saradha Group financial scandal has remained a major issue during the rule of Trinamool Congress. Narada News Sting on MPs and State Cabinet Ministers from All India Trinamool Congress (Public Interest Litigation have been filed at Calcutta High Court), lack of any major industrial investments, and law & order issue are at the heart of the election. Kolkata flyover collapse happened in the midst of poll process.
Schedule
Assembly elections in West Bengal are to be held in phases from 4 April to 5 May 2016.[19][20]

Candidates
On 10 March, BJP released its first candidate list of 52 members.[25]
AITC released its candidate list the same day the elections were announced on 5 March.[26]
Left Front which consists of CPI(M), CPI, RSP and All India Forward Bloc too released its candidate list.[27]
INC (Congress) declared its list of 92 candidates, having an "understanding" with Left Front regarding seat-sharing.[28]
Parties and alliances
Giving indications of a possible alliance between Trinamool Congress and the AAP and JD-U in the future, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that they were already in a "relationship".[29][30]
Left Democratic Secular Alliance
After Indian General Election, 2014 Left Front suffered humiliating defeat reducing it seats to only two in West Bengal. Although it showed some recovery in Hok Kolorab movement in Jadavpur University, Left Front seemed to be too weak to come to power in 2016. In 6 December 2014, a united effort of 17 Left parties made a huge rally[31] in Kolkata on destruction anniversary of Babari Mosque. Next year, Left Front settled with other left parties in Municipal election. In Bihar Legislative Assembly election, 2015, unified Left Parties managed 3 seats. In municipal election, CPI(M) made some local understanding with INC in Siliguri resulting CPI(M) leader Ashok Bhattacharya as Mayor. This success got popularity as Siliguri Model. After that some Congress and CPI(M) leader advocated for a Left-Congress alliance. After success in Siliguri Munincipal election, popularly known as Siliguri Model, INC leaders hinted at a Left-Congress alliance in the assembly polls scheduled for next year, to give the ruling Trinamool Congress a tough fight.[32] This materialized into a seat sharing "understanding" between INC and Left Front in all seats except in Murshidabad district. After much dispute and secession of SUCI(C) and CPI(ML) from Left Front, both Congress and Lefts formed "Left Democratic Secular Alliance". Some other parties like Nationalist Congress Party and Janata Dal (United) joined the alliance.
