Amid rising political tensions in West Bengal, Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar expressed discontent over the limited number of booths selected for repolling, accusing the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) of EVM tampering. Majumdar alleged that despite evident irregularities, justice remains elusive in regions like Falta.

Accusations have surfaced from both the ruling and opposing parties.
