"The BJP's sweeping victory in West Bengal marks a significant shift in the political landscape, ending decades of opposition rule and raising questions about the future of democracy in the region."
"Critics have pointed to a controversial revision of the electoral roll that stripped millions of their voting rights, suggesting this played a crucial role in the BJP's landslide win."
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won the West Bengal state assembly elections, ending nearly 50 years of opposition governance.

The election results signal a potential realignment of political power in a state historically dominated by leftist and centrist parties.
