FOREWORD

West Bengal Election Watch, which is an associate of National Election Watch, is a civil society initiative
for dissiminating to the public information about those who offer themselves for election to the
legislature. The West Bengal Elections Watch is conducted by non political persons whose only concern
has been to create awareness of the public about the relevant information which the candidates
themselves furnish about themselves.
West Bengal Election Watch conducted scrutiny of the affidavits of 1263 candidates who had contested
the recently held General Election to the West Bengal Legislative Assembly and published the
background information about them in several phases. The said background information about the
candidates included whether criminal cases were pending against them, their educational qualifications,
value of their assets, whether they were paying income tax, etc.
The Election Commission of India ought to be congratulated for peacefully conducting the said General
Election of 2011 in which the majority of voters could freely and without fear exercise their franchise.
The same was possible largely because of deployment of large contingent of police and para military
forces. One would hope that use of such security personnel would be required every time an election is
held in future. In near future every voter ought to be able to freely cast his vote without the need for
police protection.
Matter of immediate concern is election of a fairly large number of members who have criminal
background and of those who have increasing money power.
Thus among 184 Trinomul Congress Legislators, criminal cases are pending against 69 (38%), 17 (41%) of
out of 42 Congrss members have criminal cases against them. There are criminal charges against nine
ministers of the West Bengal Government. None out of 40 CPM members have criminal cases pending
against them (18%).

iii

Forty seven members of the current Legislative Assembly are Crorepati, the richest among them is
worth 12 crore. There are several other disturbing features about several members of the West Bengal
Assembly which have come out from the particulars furnished by them.
One is reminded about the speech deliverd by Dr. Rajendra Prasad who was the President of the
Constituent Assembly, after the Constitution was finally adopted on 26
th
November 1949, when asked
whether India would be able to keep its independence, Dr. Rajendra Prasad had expressed hope that the
Country would produce men of strong character, men of vision who will not sacrifice the interest of the
Country at large for the sake of smaller groups and who would rise above the prejudices of these
differences. When the same question was put to Dr. B. R. Amedkar, he among other things had
emphasized that while Constitution had provided for political equality but social and economic equality
among all sections must be also achieved.
The aim of this publication about the particulars of candidates in the last General Election is to bring
about more transparency and to ensure greater public awareness about the profile of those whom they
have elected as members of the West Bengal Assembly.

Former Chief Justice of Mumbai

DISCLAIMER
All information about candidates, MLAs and Ministers in this report has been taken from the affidavits filed by
candidates with their nomination papers. Copies of affidavits were obtained from the Chief Electoral Officers
website (http://www.ceowb.in/districtlistaffidavits.aspx). While all efforts have been made to ensure that the
information is in keeping with what is mentioned in the affidavits, in case of discrepancy between information in
this report and that given in the affidavits, the information reported in the affidavits filed by candidates should
be treated as correct. Association for Democratic Reforms, West Bengal Election Watch and their volunteers are
not responsible or liable for any damage arising directly or indirectly from the publication of this report.

Background on Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR)
and National Election Watch (NEW)

About ADR & NEW

Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) was established in 1999 by group of professors from Indian
Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad. In 1999, a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was filed by them
with Delhi High Court asking the disclosure of criminal, financial and educational background of the
candidates contesting elections. Based on this, the Supreme Court in 2002 and subsequently in 2003,
made it mandatory for all candidates contesting elections to disclose Criminal, Financial and educational
background prior to the polls by filing an affidavit with Election Commission.
The first election watch was conducted by ADR in 2002 for Gujrat Assembly Elections whereby detailed
analysis of the backgrounds of candidates contesting elections was provided to the electorate in order
to help the electorate make an informed choice during polls. Since then ADR has conducted Election
Watches for almost all state and parliament elections in collaboration with the National Election Watch.
It conducts multiple projects aimed at increasing transparency and accountability in the political and
electoral system of the country.

Our Achievements
ADR won the NASSCOM award for ICT led Innovation by Multi-stakeholder Partnerships. This
award was for the Election Watch software of ADR and Webrosoft.
ADR won two milestone judgments on disclosure of candidates criminal and financial records
from the Supreme Court in May 2002 and March 2003 respectively. Since then, 1200 NGOs from
all over the country are supporting ADR and ADR in partnership with its partners has organized
Citizen Election Watch for all major elections and disclosed candidates background information
to the media and the public.
The Election Commission has completed a massive exercise based on the Gujarat Election Watch
report to verify information filed by candidates in the nomination papers and affidavits, and has
started proceedings against candidates with false declarations.
A Bill on Electoral Expenses was passed in September 2003. The EC has asked candidates to file a
statement of expenses in every three days during the campaign. This information is made
available to citizens on request to Returning Officers, District Election Officers and the CEOs.
Civil Society nonpartisan Election Watches are springing up in different states. In the Lok Sabha
2004 Elections, 19 States and 5 Union Territories carried out Election Watches. In the Lok Sabha
2009 elections, Election Watches were held in all states and union territories in the country.
Bihar Election Watch in OctoberNovember 2005 resulted in intense pressure on the Chief
Minister designate due to the extensive media coverage of candidates background. As a result,
for the first time, Bihar has a Council of Ministers without any known criminal record.

104

The Election Commission inaugurated Civil Society led National Conferences on Electoral Reforms
in Ahmedabad, Banglore, Patna, Lucknow, Mumbai, Bhopal and Chennai. These Conferences
were action oriented and resulted in successful Election Watch campaigns.
The EC issued several very significant orders in the last two years relating to candidate disclosure,
ensuring those affidavits are complete, taking action against false affidavits based on complaints,
and disclosing electoral expenses.
In April 2008, ADR obtained a landmark ruling from the Central Information Commission (CIC)
saying that Income Tax Returns of Political Parties would now be available in the public domain
along with the assessment orders.
In the Karnataka Assembly Elections, 2008, there was a reduction in the number of candidates
with serious offenses put up by parties. There were 93 such cases against candidates in the 2008
elections, down from 217 in the 2004 assembly elections.
Overall, the percentage of candidates with pending criminal cases came down from 20% to 14%
in the assembly elections held in the country in 2008 for the states of Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh,
Madhya Pradesh, NCT of Delhi and Mizoram.
A large number of candidates with serious pending cases that contested Lok Sabha 2009
elections like Pappu Yadav, Atiq Ahmed, Mukhtar Ansari, Akhilesh Singh, etc. lost.
The number of total serious IPC sections against MPs decrease from 296 in Lok Sabha 2004 to
274 in Lok Sabha 2009.
On Jan 25, 2010 both the Congress Chief Ms Sonia Gandhi and leader of opposition in Lok Sabha
Ms Sushma Swaraj of BJP made public statements calling for a consensus on barring candidates
with criminal backgrounds from contesting elections.
On Feb 3, 2010 Prime Minister Manmohan Singh asked his Cabinet colleagues to disclose details
of their assets and liabilities and refrain from dealing with the government on immovable
property.
Because of an RTI application that ADR has been following up with the CIC for nearly the past 2
years, the contribution reports of major political parties have been made public. Added to this is
the fact that the Election Commission has taken proactive steps towards bringing in some level of
accountability in the functioning of the political parties by getting the ICAI to develop reporting
formats for political parties
In May, 2010, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Ms. Mayawati had announced the expulsion of
about 500 party leaders with criminal past.
In January 2011, the Election Commission of India entrusted the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (ICAI) with the task of developing accounting format for political parties.
Details of the movable and immovable assets of 30 Bihar ministers, including that of CM Nitish
Kumar, were uploaded on the government website in January, 2011. It is seen as a step aimed at
ending corruption promised by the Chief Minister himself.
