Kolkata: TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday alleged that “logical discrepancy” under the SIR exercise is not an officially recognised term under the Election Commission framework and was selectively applied in West Bengal, unlike Bihar, to benefit the BJP.
Addressing a public rally at Pingla in Paschim Medinipur district, she said she has not seen a “dirty party” like the BJP.
The West Bengal chief minister, urging people to vote against the BJP, said, “The BJP has snatched everything from you… Voting against it would be your only way to take revenge.”
The BJP is holding rallies at places that have direct railway connectivity with Uttar Pradesh and Bihar so that they can bring in people from those states to fill up the venues, she alleged.
Elections to the 294-member assembly will be held in two phases on April 23 and 29, and the votes will be counted on May 4.
