TMC National General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee voiced concerns about alleged attempts to interfere with democratic rights in West Bengal's elections. On Monday, he raised alarms over the large-scale submission of Form 6 applications, which include new voters in the electoral rolls, from other states.
Banerjee accused the BJP of orchestrating a coordinated effort to manipulate the voter base, questioning the Election Commission's involvement. He referenced a video clip, which he claimed indicated thousands of forms being processed, suggesting an intentional strategy to skew election results.
