 | | Political violence during this election is a high possibility in the trouble-torn districts of Bankura, Purulia, Hooghly and the southern district of Midnapore, where besides the expansive presence of the ultra-Communists, the continuing war of attrition between supporters of the ruling Marxists and the opposition Trinamool Congress is another major cause for concern. |
 | | Spiraling political violence in the five districts of Midnapore, Bankura, Hooghly, Birbhum and Burdwan has claimed about 150 lives while thousands have been rendered homeless in the past one and a half years. |
 | | Police concede that Midnapore and Hooghly districts are the two hotbeds of political animosity because the Trinamool has been seriously challenging the supremacy of the CPI-M in these places. |
