Tripura Lok Sabha Elections 2024
In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, two constituencies of Tripura – Tripura West and Tripura East – went to polls in phase one and phase two, respectively. Tripura East is reserved for candidates from Scheduled Tribes.
State’s ruling party BJP is contesting on both of them independently, while the opposition parties - Congress and CPIM - have formed an alliance under INDIA bloc. As per their seat-sharing agreement, Congress is contesting from Tripura West and CPI(M) has fielded its candidate on Tripura East.
After phase one of polling in Tripura West, CPI(M) alleged discrepancy in polling on account of voter turnout crossing 100%. However, no directions for the repolling were given by the ECI. Tripura recorded a combined voter turnout of over 80% in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
While BJP recorded a clean sweep in 2019 Lok Sabha elections in Tripura, it was CPI(M) who swept both the constituencies in the state in the Lok Sabha elections of 2014.
