Chief Minister before election Ajoy Kumar Mukherjee Bangla Congress Chief Minister after election Siddhartha Shankar Ray INC(R)

Background

The election was the 4th assembly election in West Bengal within six years.^[2] In the previous assembly election held last year, Ajoy Mukherjee of Bangla Congress became the chief minister with support of the INC(R) & the United Left Democratic Front (an alliance of CPI, AIFB, SSP rebels, PSP, BPI - Barada Mukutmoni faction, RCPI - Anadi Das faction & AIGL). President's Rule had been introduced on 29 June 1971 due to fallout of the Congress(R) (with which the Bangla Congress had merged) with the ULDF.^[2]

Contenders

There were two main fronts in the election; the alliance between the Congress(R) and CPI and the alliance led by CPI(M).^[3] The Congress(R)-CPI alliance was known as the Progressive Democratic Alliance.^[4] The PDA had a seven-point programme.^[5] At the time of the election Indira Gandhi's popularity peaked, with the victory in the Bangladesh Liberation War and electoral promises of land reform.^[3] The CPI had also gained significant prestige in West Bengal due to the Soviet support to the Bangladeshi cause in the war.^[6]

The CPI(M)-led alliance included RSP, SUCI, RCPI, MFB, WPI, the Biplobi Bangla Congress and some independents.^[3] Just before the vote there was a seat-sharing arrangement between the CPI(M)-led alliance and the AIFB.^[3] A minor third front, the West Bengal Democratic Alliance, was led by the Congress (O) and included Sushil Kumar Dhara's Bangla Congress faction, the SSP rebels and the Indian Awami League.^[3]

Results

The Congress(R)-CPI alliance won an overwhelming majority in the assembly and formed a new state government, led by Siddhartha Shankar Ray.^[4][7] Several Indian Youth Congress leaders were found among the newly elected legislators.^[5] 14 CPI(M) candidates were declared elected, but they refused to participate in the Legislative Assembly during the period of 1972-1977 as they accused that the elections had been rigged.^[5]

Reception

While there were several killings during the election campaign, electoral violence had declined compared to previous elections in West Bengal.^[4]

The elections were marred by accusations of rigging.^[10][11] CPI(M) and its allies refused to accept the election result.^[12] The left parties argued that in 172 constituencies the election had not been free and fair, accusing the Congress(R) of letting loose 'semi-fascist terror' in West Bengal.^[10] They protested by interrupting the President's speech in the Lok Sabha and in the Rajya Sabha.^[10] The Congress(O) also made accusations of rigging.^[11] The former Chief Minister Prafulla Chandra Sen on the other hand alleged that the election had been rigged in at least 45 constituencies.^[10]
