West Bengal Assembly Dissolved as Term Ends Amid Political Tensions
The legislative assembly of West Bengal was dissolved on Thursday, May 7, 2026, after completing its term, officials said, marking the end of a politically charged period in the state. The dissolution order was issued under Article 174 of the Constitution and made public by Raj Bhavan. Authorities confirmed the move coincided with the scheduled expiry of the assembly’s tenure. The development follows recent remarks by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who earlier this week rejected claims of electoral defeat and alleged irregularities in the mandate. Her comments drew criticism from leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party, who questioned her position and called for accountability. Officials, however, did not link the dissolution directly to the political dispute, stating it was a routine constitutional step at the end of the assembly’s term. The dissolution formally concludes the current legislative cycle in the state, with further steps expected as part of the electoral transition process.
