The Trinamool Congress on Tuesday announced its candidates for all 294 seats in the West Bengal Assembly elections.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said the party will contest 291 seats, leaving three in the Darjeeling hills to the Bharatiya Gorkha Prajatantrik Morcha led by Anit Thapa.
"Before I announce the candidate list, I thank the people of Bengal... I dedicate Maa Maati Manush Banglar Sanskriti to all, and release the candidate list of 294 seats. I want to say something to the BJP- why are you afraid? Don't create a gas crisis if you want to fight; come to the ground in a proper way. ECI, you did a brilliant game... BJP has no chance. This time your seats will decrease as compared to the last time. This is the fight of Astitva of West Bengal. Bengal will win. 'Dilli ka laddu' will not win..." she said.
Here is the full list.

Banerjee will contest from Bhabanipur, while Shashi Panja has been fielded from Maniktala. The Bharatiya Janata Party has nominated Suvendu Adhikari from both Bhabanipur and Nandigram in its first list.
However, Banerjee will not contest from Nandigram, where she lost to Adhikari in the 2021 Assembly election. Instead, the TMC has fielded Pabitra Kar—a former aide of Adhikari who recently switched sides—in what is shaping up to be a high-stakes contest.
Among the party’s 291 candidates, 52 are women, 95 belong to SC/ST communities, and 47 are from minority groups.
