The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has released its list of candidates for the upcoming West Bengal Legislative Assembly elections. West Bengal goes to the polls in eight phases — to be held on March 27, April 1, April 6, April 10, April 17, April 22, April 26 and April 29. The results for election to the 294-seat Assembly will be declared on May 2.

The BJP has around 20 turncoats and fielding party heavyweights Mukul Roy and Rahul Sinha.

The state is set to see an intense battle between Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee and her former aide Suvendu Adhikari, who recently switched over to the BJP.
