Rajganj (SC) is a Scheduled Caste–reserved assembly constituency located in Jalpaiguri district of West Bengal. The constituency is predominantly rural, with agriculture, small-scale trade, and tea garden–linked livelihoods forming the backbone of the local economy. Rajganj’s proximity to Siliguri and its position along important transit routes give it both economic and political relevance in north Bengal. Electoral outcomes here often reflect broader regional trends while remaining shaped by local socio-economic factors.
In the 2021 West Bengal Assembly elections, the constituency was won by Khageswar Roy of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). He defeated his nearest rival from the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) by a margin of approximately 1,400 votes. The extremely narrow victory margin made Rajganj one of the closest contests in the district, highlighting a sharply divided electorate and the constituency’s status as a highly competitive seat.
Key issues in Rajganj (SC) largely centre on rural development and economic stability. Agricultural concerns remain a priority, with farmers raising demands related to irrigation, crop pricing, and protection from flood damage. Infrastructure gaps — particularly the condition of rural roads, drainage systems, drinking water supply, and electricity reliability — continue to shape voter expectations.
