Legislative Assembly elections were held in Indian state of West Bengal in 2001 to elect 294 members of the West Bengal Legislative Assembly.[1]

## Results

[edit]

Left Front led by Communist Party of India (Marxist) won 196 seats, a majority. Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee was reelected as Chief Minister. Pankaj Kumar Banerjee of All India Trinamool Congress, took charge as Leader of the Opposition.[2]

For the first time since 1971, no single party won a majority. This was also the first time since its landslide victory in 1977, that the ruling CPI(M) failed to win a majority on its own. As of 2022, this was also the last time that no single party won an outright majority.
