With just one phase of voting left, nine seats in West Bengal will vote on 19 May. But before this can happen, violence has gripped the last days of campaigning in the state.

Tensions peaked after unknown elements defaced a statue of Bengali writer Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar on 14 May. The TMC and BJP have blamed each other for the incident.

Meanwhile, tensions are at an all-time high in the state.

What does this mean for the 2019 elections? How will West Bengal's elections play out? Sanjay Pugalia explains on this episode of Chunav Tracker.
