The Trinamool Congress approached the Election Commission fearing unrest on the day of polling in East Midnapore. On Friday (March 26) afternoon, Trinamool MP Kakali Ghosh Dastidar and Derek O’ Brien went to the Election Commission office and complained in a letter.

The TMC leaders claimed that foreign miscreants had infiltrated large areas of East Midnapore, including Nandigram. The commission should take immediate action in this regard.

Opposition candidates, especially in Egra, Patashpur, Bhagwanpur and Nandigram, have been hiding their misdeeds in the house of the villagers. They can create violence on the polling day.”
