Ruckus at Bhabanipur counting centre; TMC alleges unauthorised entry to strongroom

Tensions escalated at the counting centre in Bhabanipur Assembly constituency ahead of vote counting, with TMC workers alleging unauthorised entry of vehicles near the EVM strongroom. The incident comes days after a sit-in protest by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over similar concerns. While the Election Commission denied any irregularities, stating that security protocols were followed and no objectionable activity was found, TMC leaders continued to raise concerns over transparency and EVM safety.
