Bharatpur is a stronghold of Murshidabad strongman Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury who happens to be current president of the West Bengal unit of the Congress. The seat is a bastion of Revolutionary Socialist Party (RSP) which has been winning it since 1977. However, after the 2011 assembly elections, a large number of CPM supporters switched allegiance to Trinamool Congress which is trying to establish hegemony in the area.
