Soon after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday alleged that the Election Commission (EC) is working for Amit Shah, Deputy Election Commissioner Sudeep Jain wrote to the TMC supremo asking her to refrain from making accusations against ECI.
The Election Commission on Sunday suspended the police officer in charge of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee s security when she was injured during a visit to the state s Nandigram.
New Delhi [India], March 12 (ANI): A delegation of six MPs of Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Friday met the Election Commission officials in the national capital to raise their concern over the Nandigram incident in which West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee suffered injuries.
A delegation of the party also met poll panel officials in Kolkata on Thursday and later alleged that the Election Commission did nothing despite there being reports of a possible attack on Banerjee .
Claiming that the attack was a deep-rooted conspiracy to take the life of the TMC supremo , party leaders alleged that anti-social elements have been mobilised from the neighbouring states by the BJP in Nandigram to unleash violence.
The EC can t shun responsibility as it is in charge of the law-and-order situation in poll-bound West Bengal, it said.
The Trinamool Congress supremo was injured in the leg after being allegedly pushed by unidentified people near a temple at Reyapara area during campaigning at Nandigram on Wednesday, where the BJP has pitted her protege-turned-adversary Suvendu Adhikari against her.
