Dismissing the Trinamool Congress’ allegations that the attack on chief minister Mamata Banerjee at Nandigram on March 10 was ‘premeditated’, the Election Commission indicated that security lapses and failure of ‘bandobast’ for the CM’s election rally were the actual cause of concern. On Sunday, the EC shunted out the security director, DM and SP of Purba Medinipur district where the incident occurred.
