Seat change
Against West Bengal's previous Vidhan Sabha election (2021), matched constituency-for-constituency
- Retained147 (50%)
- Changed hands126 (43%)
- New seat21 (7%)
147 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 126 changed hands. 21 did not exist at the previous election.
India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
