West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee continues her protest against alleged irregularities in the electoral roll revision, accusing the BJP of manipulating voter lists via the Election Commission.
Banerjee claims the BJP's tactics aim to undermine democratic foundations, insisting her focus remains on the welfare of the people.
With 63 lakh voters removed since November, Banerjee draws historical parallels, vowing that Bengal will again resist oppressive influences as it historically did. The review process has broader implications for electoral integrity in the upcoming state elections.
