Trinamool: West Bengal to resist 'burdensome' electoral changes
The article alleges electoral manipulation and demands transparency from the Election Commission.
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has criticized the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls being conducted by the Election Commission (EC), calling it "Software Intensive Rigging" and demanding greater transparency. Derek O'Brien, a Rajya Sabha floor leader for the TMC, stated that while they support SIR, they are concerned about the process's potential to disenfranchise voters in West Bengal. He also criticized the EC for its handling of the revision, questioning the multiple changes in procedures and alleging political bias. Abhishek Banerjee, TMC general secretary, hailed the Supreme Court's order requiring public disclosure of those arbitrarily labeled with "logical discrepancies," calling it a victory for the people of Bengal.
