Mamata Banerjee’s Bhabanipur seat has emerged as the focal point of BJP’s strategy ahead of the 2026 West Bengal polls. By fielding Suvendu Adhikari and turning the contest high-stakes, analysts believe the BJP is attempting to limit Mamata’s campaign reach across the state. With demographic factors and voter roll revisions also in play, Bhabanipur could significantly influence the larger electoral outcome.
