Kumargram is a Scheduled Tribe (ST)-reserved Assembly constituency in Alipurduar district, marked by tribal-majority rural belts, forest-adjacent settlements, tea garden labour clusters, and international border proximity. Electoral behaviour is shaped by tribal consolidation depth, land-rights sensitivity, plantation wage dynamics, and turnout elasticity in dispersed forest-fringe zones. Psephologically, Kumargram functions as a tribal-border seat with moderate volatility influenced by mobilisation symmetry across interior villages and labour-dense clusters.
