CM Mamata Banerjee upped her political game by roping in many popular faces from the Bengali film industry. The list includes Mimi Chakraborty who is contesting from Jadavpur, Nusrat Jahan, who is contesting from Basirhat, while Shatabdi Roy and Dev (Deepak Adhikari) contested from Birbhum and Ghatal constituency, respectively.


In the 2014 general election, the TMC recorded its best-ever performance when it claimed 34 over 42 seats. The Left Front lost 15 seats but managed to win two seats Raiganj-Raiganj and Murshidabad, both of which were earlier held by Congress.


Polling in West Bengal took place in 42 constituencies in all the seven phases and a total of 466 candidates were in the fray. Violence and ruckus marred voting across the state in all the phases. However, the voter turnout remained the maximum.
