 The politics of Amra Bangali are based on Sarkar's ideas of economic and political democracy. The party is organized in [[West Bengal]], as well as in other states with large Bengali populations such as [[Tripura]], [[Bihar]], [[Odisha]], [[Assam]] and [[Jharkhand]]. The only real political breakthrough the party has had was in Tripura during the 1980s, when the party entered the Legislative Assembly in connection with the mounting ethnic tensions in the state.
