Siyaset·03.05.2026AI özeti Trinamool Congress Demands Suspension of IPS 'Singham' Officer Over Alleged Rigging in West Bengal's Falta Constituency
Trinamool Congress leader Kunal Ghosh has demanded the suspension of IPS officer Ajay Pal Sharma, nicknamed 'Singham', over alleged massive rigging in West Bengal's Falta Assembly constituency. The Election Commission has ordered a complete repoll in all 285 polling stations on May 21, citing severe electoral offences and subversion of democratic process during the April 29 polling. The EC's detailed order revealed that initial scrutiny was deeply flawed, relying primarily on paperwork while failing to thoroughly examine complaints and review video footage. The BJP had alleged that party symbols on EVMs were taped over at several booths.
