The big changes in Bengal's Lok Sabha elections in 2024 and the impact they could have

New Indian Express  

So, have Bengal's political parties learnt a lesson from the past? TMC leaders claim they have asked the party's local leaders to restrain their workers, as violence in one phase can dent the party's prospects in the following phases. Key changes in TMC's strategy One of the strategic changes in the TMC's campaign is that in 2019, their campaign was more focussed on national issues and multiple TMC leaders had pegged Banerjee as a potential prime ministerial candidate of a coalition between regional parties. This time, the TMC's campaign is focussed more on Bengal – how the TMC government's welfare schemes are supporting people's lives, while the Modi government is depriving Bengal. In this connection, another significant change from the 2019 campaign is the TMC's pitch branding the BJP as "anti-Bengali".
