RSP, a constituent of the Left Front, managed to win the newly created assembly segment of Malatipur due to dissidence in the opposition camps. Like other assembly constituencies in the Malda district, Malatipur also has a strong presence of the Congress. The upcoming assembly election to the seat can witness multi-cornered contest if the TMC and Congress decide to go to the polls separately which was not the case in 2011.
