Purbasthali Uttar Assembly Election Results 2026

Purbasthali Uttar is a rural assembly constituency in Purba Bardhaman district, adjacent to Purbasthali Dakshin in the Katwa subdivision. The constituency has an agricultural character, with paddy cultivation and small rural trade as the economic mainstays. The 2021 result was competitive, underlining the constituency's status as a closely contested seat in the Bardhaman belt. In the 2021 West Bengal Assembly elections, the seat was won by Tapan Chatterjee of the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC). He secured victory over the nearest rival from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by a margin of 6,706 votes. The result reflected the broader political alignment in the constituency and underlined the dominant party's organisational strength in the area. Agricultural welfare, irrigation and crop pricing are the primary concerns in Purbasthali Uttar. Riverbank erosion and flood management in low-lying areas are significant concerns for farming communities. Rural connectivity, healthcare access and welfare scheme delivery are important voter demands. Employment for youth and effective local governance are also key political themes heading into 2026. The 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections are shaping up as a high-stakes contest between the ruling All India Trinamool Congress (AITC), led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is seeking to make major inroads into the state. With anti-incumbency, law-and-order concerns and welfare delivery all playing a role, every constituency is expected to be closely watched. Trinamool Congress has fielded Vasundhara Goswami while BJP has fielded Gopal Chattopadhayay for the 2026 election.
