Though Raipur is currently held by CPM, the TMC candidate from Bankura Lok Sabha constituency had led from this assembly segment in 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Though the forthcoming 2016 assembly elections will witness direct fight between CPM and TMC, the BJP is also a competitive force with the potential of eating into the votes of the other parties. Congress though reduced to a non-entity in Raipur, can harm the prospects of the TMC if the party enters into an alliance with the Left Front. In such case chances of Left front appears to be bright.
