The 2026 elections injected an intensity rarely seen in Bengal's recent history. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's long tenure encountered its toughest challenge as the BJP mounted a vigorous grassroots push, leveraging its national leadership and organisational depth.

Actor Vijay's newly formed Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) emerged as the single-largest force with around 108-110 seats in the 234-member assembly.
