Though Ranibandh is currently under the control of CPM, the TMC has also made deep inroads. Though the upcoming 2016 assembly elections will be fought between TMC and the CPM, the BJP will also secure substantial votes. Though reduced to an also ran category in Ranibandh, the Congress has the potential of denting the prospects of the TMC if the party enters into an alliance with the Left Front which is in the offing. The Jharkhand Party has some pockets of influence in Ranibandh assembly constituency.
