While several violent occurrences were reported during the Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) elections, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee responded to the BJP’s claim of dishonesty on Sunday by saying that “if anyone pretends, ignore him.” “If anyone pretends, ignore him,” she added. The TMC supremo praised the Kolkata Police, saying that the officers on duty performed an excellent job and that the polling % was also “decent.”If someone is unable to vote, what can be done? If they want to participate in drama, let them.” The police have done an excellent job, and the polling has taken place in a tranquil environment. Abhishek Banerjee, national general secretary of the Trinamool Congress, has stated that if any party leader is proven to have been involved in violence during the KMC polls, harsh action will be taken within 24 hours. “This is not Tripura,” he declared. “You show the tape that whoever joins the party, harsh action would be taken against the administration and the party within 25 hours,” he continued. Meanwhile, the BJP has called for a new election. In the aftermath of the KMC elections, BJP leaders, notably Amit Malviya, said that voters were “intimidated,” and they blamed the TMC for the violence.
Malviya declared that the BJP would stage protests in all districts of West Bengal to draw attention to the “death of democracy” in the state under the administration of Mamata Banerjee. “TMC has violated the KMC elections by blasting voters, issuing threats of murder and rape, targeting the media, and employing the police and civil administration.” To defy the established order. They have completed every task. Bengal Pradesh is ruled by the BJP. “To organize protests in all districts of West Bengal in order to draw attention to the demise of democracy in the United States,” Malviya stated on Twitter. He claimed that the Kolkata Police Department, which works closely with state Home Minister Mamata Banerjee under Banerjee’s leadership, was acting as a quiet spectator. Meena Devi Purohit, a BJP candidate in ward number 22, was allegedly assaulted, according to the party. Candidates from both political parties claimed that strangers entered the ward and caused a scuffle to erupt in ward no 45.
