The entire country is keeping an eye on the West Bengal and Assam assembly elections. MATRIZE has conducted an opinion poll regarding this. This opinion poll is going to leave political parties breathless. According to the survey, TMC is likely to get 43 percent votes, BJP 42 percent and others 16 percent.
According to the survey, there is a possibility of tough competition on 294 seats of Bengal. According to MATRIZE opinion poll, TMC is likely to get 140-160 seats, BJP 130-150 seats and others 8-16 seats. The majority figure in Bengal is 148. The political scenario of Bengal has changed this time.
After separating from TMC, Humayun Kabir has formed his own party, whose name is Aam Janata Unnayan Party. He has formed an alliance with Asaduddin Owaisi’s party AIMIM. This alliance will give competition to Mamata Banerjee’s TMC on many Muslim seats, which can benefit BJP. This is the reason why there can be tough contests between BJP and TMC candidates on most of the seats.
