The 2019 Lok Sabha election was a decisive moment and a turning point in West Bengal`s recent political history. It may not be the 2011 watershed moment when Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee brought the Left`s three-decade-long uninterrupted rule to an end. However, the two moments are most definitely comparable.

From being inconsequential to turning into a dominant force - the journey of the Hindu right-wing came full circle in Bengal this LokSabha election. The fish and debate-loving `Left progressive` Bengali seemed to have finally shifted their loyalty to the BJP. So how did this shift take place and what did it take for the BJP, largely viewed as a `North-Indian party` to become such a threat in the East? And, most importantly, can the Modi-Amit Shah team defeat Mamata in the 2021 state elections?

The Bengal Conundrum will answer these questions and examine how this shift to the right might change Bengal politics forever.
