Kalchini Constituency Election Results 2026: Kalchini Assembly Seat Details, MLA Candidates & Winner

Kalchini (ST) is a Scheduled Tribe–reserved assembly constituency located in Alipurduar district of West Bengal. Situated in the Dooars region of north Bengal, the constituency is known for its tea gardens, forested terrain, and a sizeable tribal population. The local economy is largely driven by tea plantation work, small-scale agriculture, and allied rural activities. Political contests in Kalchini have gained attention in recent years as voting patterns in the region have shown notable shifts. In the 2021 West Bengal Assembly elections, the constituency was won by Pasang Lama of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). He defeated his nearest rival from the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) by a margin of around 33,000 votes. The victory was considered decisive and aligned with the BJP’s broader electoral gains across several constituencies in north Bengal during that election cycle. Key issues in Kalchini (ST) are closely tied to livelihood and development concerns. Tea garden workers frequently highlight matters related to wages, job security, housing, and access to healthcare. Delays in payments, closure of gardens, and economic uncertainty have remained persistent concerns.
