Chaos at SIR hearings as Trinamool demands inclusion of booth level agents during proceedings

Trinamool Congress (TMC) members, including MLA Asit Majumdar, protested at SIR hearings in West Bengal demanding the inclusion of Booth Level Agents (BLAs). The protests led to disruptions and calls for FIRs against Majumdar. The Election Commission (EC) is facing criticism over its handling of the hearings, with complaints about long wait times and concerns regarding the age and health conditions of some voters.
