Suvendu Adhikari, the newly elected Chief Minister of West Bengal, has declared assets totaling ₹85.87 lakh (approximately $103,000 USD), which is over 450% higher than the assets of outgoing Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who reported ₹15.37 lakh (approximately $18,500 USD). Both leaders reported zero liabilities in their election affidavits. Adhikari's wealth primarily consists of savings instruments and immovable assets located in Purba Medinipur, along with agricultural and residential properties in Nandigram. Notably, he does not own any cars, gold, or luxury items. In contrast, Banerjee's asset declaration includes cash, bank deposits, and gold jewelry valued at around ₹1.45 lakh. Despite having lower total assets, Banerjee reported a higher annual income of ₹23.21 lakh for the fiscal year 2024-25, compared to Adhikari's ₹17.38 lakh. Additionally, Adhikari's affidavit reveals he is facing 29 pending criminal cases, although no charges have been framed against him to date.
