Overview


As per orders of the Delimitation Commission, there are two constituencies, namely Asansol Uttar Assembly constituency and Asansol Dakshin Assembly constituency.No. 280 Asansol Dakshin covers Wards 38-39,56-57,75,77-87,94-98,106 of Asansol Municipal Corporation (Before 2015 Ward nos. 9,18,20,34-50 of Asansol municipal corporation) and Amrasota, Egara, Ballavpur, Jemari and Tirat gram panchayats of Raniganj CD Block.[1]

Asansol Uttar and Asansol Dakshin assembly segments are part of No. 40 Asansol (Lok Sabha constituency).[1]

The United News of India (UNI) has been candid about the second largest city and urban agglomeration in West Bengal (the area covered by the Asansol Lok Sabha Sabha constituency) after Kolkata that is a hub of coal mining and railway activity bordering Jharkhand. Asansol has seen, it writes, “a sustained hold over it by the CPI(M) since 1984. Before that it was a tale of fluctuating fortune for the CPI(M) and the Congress… However, as the green surge swept Bengal to demolish the red bastion in 2011 Assembly elections… Moreover, as the Left still remained cornered in state politics, their neutralised voters are increasingly migrating to the BJP for a viable alternative.”[2]
