Can SIR Become A Double-Edged Sword For BJP In West Bengal?

BJP President Nitin Nabin strongly defends the ongoing voter list revision in West Bengal, rejecting TMC's allegations of targeted deletions and bias. He argues that any removal of names follows due process led by district administration and the Election Commission, not the Centre. Addressing concerns over large-scale voter deletions, especially in border districts, Nabin frames the exercise as necessary to prevent illegal voting, questioning whether "Bangladeshis should be allowed to vote." He blames the state government for any discrepancies, saying adequate time was given for claims and objections. Nitin Nabin also dismisses allegations against the Governor and central agencies as signs of TMC's frustration, insisting that stricter measures are essential to ensure free and fair elections.
