“TMC knows that it is losing & that's why it is saying all this. For such complaints, TMC should go to the Election Commission. TMC & Mamata Banerjee are under pressure and that is why they are saying such things,” Dilip Ghosh was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

 

Dilip Ghosh's tweet came hours after TMC alleged that some voters have complained that despite voting for the TMC their ballot was cast in favour of the opposition party. “Shocking claim by voters which must be immediately looked into by @ECISVEEP and @CEOWestBengal. Many voters in Kanthi Dakshin assembly seat allege that they voted for TMC but VVPAT showed them the BJP symbol. THIS IS SERIOUS! THIS IS UNPARDONABLE!” the TMC wrote on Twitter.

 

Voting in 30 assembly constituencies of West Bengal is underway in the first of eight phases of polling. A voter turnout of XX was recorded in the state till 12 noon. The result for the 294-seat assembly will be declared on May 2.
