The elections held in six of the 12 constituencies in Malda a district with around 55 per cent minority population on Monday bore broad hints that the battle was a direct contest between the BJP and the Trinamul Congress.
Over 13 lakh voters went to the booths to exercise their franchise in the first phase of the elections in the district, which has always been a Congress stronghold. The rest of the seats in the district will vote on April 29.
“Unlike earlier elections when the Congress always had an extra edge in most seats in the district, the political equations appear to be different this time. A considerable section of Muslims, who had been with the Congress for decades, seem to be siding with Trinamul,” said Najibar Rehman, an educationist and a political analyst in Malda town.
