Will expose BJP-poll panel conspiracy disenfranchise Bengali voters: Mamata Banerjee

“I will expose the BJP-EC conspiracy to disenfranchise Bengali voters,” she said in her speech.

“I will present those voters, who have been declared dead by the EC, at this protest site.”

During the dharna, Trinamool Congress (TMC) national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee exhorted voters to “boycott” the BJP in the upcoming state assembly polls.

“Boycott BJP. You may have reasons not to like TMC but Bengalis with the minimum sense of honour should not vote for BJP unless they don’t want something bad to happen to Bengal. I predicted earlier that BJP will not get more than 50 (of 294) seats. After what has happened in the name of SIR, their tally should not cross 40,” he said.

“In the 2024 Lok Sabha polls we said ‘No vote to BJP’. Now we are saying ‘Boycott BJP’. Boycott them socially,” he added.
