After a comfortable victory in Bihar, the BJP has all eyes on West Bengal where the Trinamool Congress (TMC) is aiming to return to power for the third straight term.
The BJP has gained massive prominence in the state particularly after the 2019 General Elections where the saffron brigade won an unprecedented 18 seats, upsetting the TMC.
Union Home Minister and one of BJP's topmost leaders, Amit Shah, during his recent visit to West Bengal had said his party will win a two-third majority in the assembly elections, unseating Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
The reshuffles have also been brought in various states by the country's ruling party.
