West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has strongly criticized the BJP and the Election Commission, asserting that nearly 91 lakh voter names were unjustifiably removed from electoral rolls during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise.
Banerjee announced plans to take legal action against these voter deletions, stating that efforts to exclude names won’t defeat her party, the TMC. She alleged that the BJP seeks to manipulate electoral outcomes by distorting the electoral rolls and using intimidation tactics.
While addressing rallies in Hooghly district, Banerjee issued warnings about possible cultural implications should the BJP assume power, contending that foods like fish and meat might be banned, and that the BJP plans to divide Bengal under the guise of delimitation.
