'BJP-EC nexus': Mamata says poll body deleted 54 lakh 'genuine voters', plan to remove 1 cr more

West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee accused the Election Commission of unilaterally deleting 54 lakh names from draft electoral rolls, alleging a BJP-EC nexus. She claimed genuine voters, including women who changed surnames, were removed without notice, possibly using AI tools. Banerjee further alleged plans to remove another crore names and accused the EC of restricting booth-level agents.
