Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra is seeking re-election from the Krishnanagar constituency in West Bengal. Moitra had been expelled from the Lok Sabha in December 2023 for allegedly asking parliamentary questions at the behest of industrialist Darshan Hiranandani. Her main challenger is Amrita Roy from the BJP, whose family has historical ties to the East India Company. The contest has been made more interesting by the presence of CPI(M) candidate S.M. Saadi.
