West Bengal 2016 Assembly Election Analysis West Bengal 2016 Assembly Election Analysis Assignment 1: Conduct Opinion Polls for West Bengal Assembly Elections 2020 Assignment 2: Summarize and Present 2016 West Bengal Assembly Elections Results Spotle.ai Submitted by: Siddhant Pansare Introduction: Behind Mamata Banerjee’s decisive and impressive victory in the 2016 West Bengal assembly elections is the second highest vote share registered in the state by Trinamool Congress – 44.9%, against 49.1% for the Congress in 1972. Banerjee ruled for a second term with the second largest majority of seats ever obtained by a single party or coalition – 71.77%, against 77.14% for the Congress in 1972. Trinamool Congress put up a stunning victory in West Bengal winning 211 of the 294 seats, bettering its 2011 tally of 184 seats. Out of the 294 seats, Congress-Left combine got 76 seats. TMC had secured 184 seats in 2011 Assembly election when it had fought in alliance with Congress. The Congress-Left combine did not make much headway despite prediction by political pundits. Congress, however, did better than its Left partners securing 44 seats. Left partners CPI-M bagged 26 seats, RSP-3, CPI-1 and Forward Bloc-2. Vote Share: The combined vote share of the Left Front was also reduced to nearly 24 per cent from 41 per cent in 2011. The Left Front had won 62 seats in 2011 Assembly poll, of which CPI(M) had won 40 seats. Congress, however, bettered its vote percentage this time to 12.3 compared to 8.91 per cent in 2011 when it had contested in alliance with TMC. In 2014 Lok Sabha poll, Congress’s vote share in the state was 9.6 per cent. BJP, on the other hand, increased its vote percentage to 10.2 compared 4.06 per cent secured in 2011 Assembly election and managed to capture three seats. The Trinamool contested on its own this time, unlike in 2011 when it contested in alliance with the Congress. Because it contested more seats this time, Trinamool increased its overall vote share significantly – from 38.9% to 44.9%. This is the second highest score registered in West Bengal since Independence. But in terms of vote shares in the seats contested, the Trinamool tally of 44.9% of the votes is less than in 2011, when it bagged a majority of the votes – 50.15% – in the 226 seats it contested. The Congress bagged an average of 40.1% of the vote share in the seats it contested, 2.5% less than in 2011, when it contested 66 seats, in an alliance with the Trinamool. Despite contesting in 34 more seats than in 2011, it only increased its overall vote share by 3%. Therefore, any claim that the Congress has somewhat progressed in West Bengal should be taken with a pinch of salt. Its seat share marginally increased, from 13.6% to 15% (plus two seats) and its performance depended on the goodwill of its partners and their supporters. The main loser of this election is the CPI(M), which lost a third of its voters, compared to 2011. The mainstream communist party is back to where it was in 1969. The loss is all the more humiliating that it contested in an alliance with the Congress. Survey data would be required to see whether Congress voters stayed away from communist candidates, but the partnership clearly did little to attenuate the CPI(M)’s woes. As a result, the CPI(M) is now the third party in terms of seats, behind Congress. The CPI(M) received 38.4% of the votes in the seats it contested – less than its partner. In all, the CPI(M)-Congress combine received 17.5 million votes, while the Trinamool received close to 25.6 million votes. The BJP increased its vote share from 4% to 10.2%, which incidentally is not its best performance in West Bengal. The saffron party had won 11.3% of vote share in the 1991 assembly elections. Since it contested in all the seats – 292 out of 294 – its vote share in seats contested remains roughly the same at 10.4%. In the 14 assembly segments of Kolkata, the lotus party got only 2.75 lakhs votes, that is 13% of the city’s vote share. The Trinamool’s victory is comprehensive as it covers the entirety of the state. It’s vote share is weaker in Maldah and Murshidabad districts, where the Congress retains a good presence, and in Darjeeling and in parts of Bankura districts. Otherwise, the party emerges victorious everywhere else. Its vote share tended to be higher in rural areas, a sign that it has – almost – completely replaced the Left as the "provider party" for the rural poor. The CPI(M) retains an all-state presence, even if it is receding. This means that his vote share gets diluted over a large number of seats, which explains its poor conversion rate of votes into seats (26 seats for 19.75% vote share). The party has lost all its stronghold and is a second or third figure in every district. The following map shows the spatial distribution of winners. It confirms that the Congress maintains two strongholds in Maldah and Murshidabad, that the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha has proved to be a successor to the Gorkha National Liberation Front in Darjeeling, and that the Left is a scattered force. The Contenders: In 2016, there were a total of 56 parties, with 1,961 individuals contesting either as party or independent candidates – 68% of these candidates lost their deposit and only nine parties made it to the Vidhan Sabha. Small parties can have a spoiler effect when they cut across the vote base of major parties. That did not happen in these elections as voters concentrated on the main contenders. The Trinamool and the Left-Congress alliance together nearly 81% of the total vote share. The BJP got 10.2% of the votes and the rest was split among 50-odd parties and independent candidates. The average margin separating the runner-up from the third candidate is above 49,000 votes, which is another indicator that these elections were a bipolar fight. The 2016 state elections have generally confirmed the trend that voters tend to vote more and more for major players and aren’t willing to "waste" their vote with small parties for the sake of making a statement or to support a small party on the bases of a narrow identity criteria. + Table showing results for all the Assembly (Vidhan Sabha) Constituencies of West Bengal with the names of winner and runner-up candidates.

  • Ritajyoti Bandyopadhyay: Archiving from Below
    Archiving from Below: The Case of the Mobilised Hawkers in Calcutta by Ritajyoti Bandyopadhyay University of California, Berkeley and Jadavpur University Sociological Research Online 14(5)7 <http://www.socresonline.org.uk/14/5/7.html> doi:10.5153/sro.2008 Received: 17 Mar 2009 Accepted: 4 Oct 2009 Published: 30 Nov 2009 Abstract In the last two decades or more, critical scholarship in the human sciences has been commenting on different aspects of the 'archive'. While much has been said on the archive of the state, especially in the historiography of colonial South Asia, very little is known about the archival functions of political parties, movements, grassroots community organisations, and trade unions that are involved in the governance of populations in the post-colonial state. The paper argues that archival claims lie at the heart of negotiations between the state and population groups. It looks at the archival function of the Hawker Sangram Committee (HSC) in Calcutta to substantiate the point. Following Operation Sunshine (1996), a move by the state to forcibly evict hawkers from some selected pavements of Calcutta, in order to reclaim such 'public' spaces, a mode of collective resistance developed under the banner of the HSC. The HSC has subsequently come to occupy a central position in the governance of the realm of pavement-hawking through the creation and maintenance of an archival database that articulates the entrepreneurial capacity of the 'poor hawker' and his ability to deliver goods and services at low-cost. The significance of the HSC's archive is that, it enables the organisation to form a moral and rational critique of the exclusionary discourses on the hawker, mostly propagated by a powerful combination of a few citizens' associations, the judiciary and the press.

  • Contradictions, Negotiations and Reform the Story of Left Policy Transition in West Bengal
    Contradictions, Negotiations and Reform The Story of Left Policy Transition in West Bengal 1 1. Introduction The thirty year story of Left rule (the Left Front coalition spearheaded by the Communist Party of India-Marxist: CPIM) in the Indian state of West Bengal has often been a tumultuous one, sparking intense debates in the political echelons of the country. The Left Front demonstrated a rare instance of political stability, especially when placed in the wider context of caste, religion, and ethnicity based politics and frequent regime changes elsewhere in India; it decisively won seven consecutive democratic elections from 1977 to 2006, finally losing in 2011.The Left Front’s development record is also substantial. It brought in significant land reforms, was the first among Indian state governments to take up the mantle of democratic decentralization via the panchayati- raj institution (a system of local governance), and gained unprecedented popularity as a government for the poor. In this context the electoral defeat of the Left Front in 2011, after a much touted industrialisation drive and associated land acquisition, evoked sharp reactions. In the 2006 state elections, the government had earned a historic majorityi, but this was followed almost immediately by a ‘series of poll debacles… [which] left the…Left Front…completely shell-shocked. It did not quite anticipate the tide of popular mood to cause almost a lateral shift in its electoral base in the urban, and most dramatically in the rural, areas of the state’ (Bhattacharya, 2010). Scholars such as Bardhan, Mitra et al (2012), associate this electoral decline with voters’ concerns about the governance failure of Left leaders, while others articulate arrogance, accompanied by a noticeable downturn in the quality of the leadership (particularly that of Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, Chief Minister from 2000-2011), as being responsible for the decline (RayChaudhury, 2011).
