The authority of Trinamool Congress remains unquestioned in Nandigram assembly constituency where violence during the period preceding the 2011 assembly elections led to the ouster of the Left from power after its uninterrupted rule of 34 years. In 2014 Tamluk TMC MP Subhendu Adhikari had secured a whipping lead of 87,283 votes from the Nandigram assembly constituency. However, the popularity of the sitting TMC MLA Feroza Bibi is in a state of decline. TMC has also declared that sitting TMC MP from Tamluk Lok Sabha, Subhendu Adhikari, would be the party’s candidate for the forthcoming assembly polls.
