In Majhdia, located in Nadia district, West Bengal, the Matua community, primarily composed of Hindu refugees from Bangladesh, is displaying a notable shift towards the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as the 2026 assembly elections approach. Amidst uproar over voter deletions following a special revision of electoral rolls, residents express concerns about their participation in the electoral process. The area, which falls under the Krishnaganj (SC) constituency, is witnessing a four-way contest among candidates from the BJP, Trinamool Congress, Congress, and CPI-M. Local farmers, such as Nitish Biswas, are struggling with low onion prices at ₹9.5 per kg and are in debt, highlighting the economic challenges faced by the community. The fencing along the border, established in 1998, has provided security for farmers, reducing incidents of theft from across the border. As the elections draw near, the Matua community hopes for a favorable political outcome, reflecting their historical ties and aspirations for better living conditions.
