In a bid to ensure transparency in electoral rolls, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) alleged on Monday significant irregularities in the voter registration process in West Bengal. The party claims multiple documents, essential for voter identification, were issued and authenticated under questionable circumstances.
A delegation, which included BJP's West Bengal president Samik Bhattacharya and former Tripura chief minister Biplab Deb, pressed the Election Commission to intensify scrutiny during the upcoming Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. They emphasize the need to investigate reports of violence and intimidation by the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) against opposition supporters.
The BJP asserts that state initiatives have issued documents without proper verification, aiding illegal infiltration. Party in-charge Amit Malviya highlighted instances of unauthorized documents being circulated, undermining the state's electoral integrity.
