The BJP has released its list of candidates for 287 of the 294 assembly seats of West Bengal. The party has nominated
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's grand-nephew Chandra Kumar Bose as its chief ministerial candidate. Chandra Kumar Bose is set to contest from Bhowanipore constituency. State party chief Dilip Ghosh will contest from Kharagpur Sadar. Former chief of BJP West Bengal unit Rahul Sinha and actor Rupa Ganguly will contest from Jorasanko and Howrah North respectively. Union Minister and CEC secretary J.P. Nadda said that the party has given due representation to all sections of the society in its candidates' list. Meanwhile, Shakeel Ansari, chief of BJP's minority wing, has resigned in protest against the party's decision not to field a single Muslim candidate in the 52 assembly seats announced in the first list.
