The Bharatiya Janata Party accused the Trinamool Congress of poll malpractice during Bengal voting. BJP leader Amit Malviya said the party’s voting option was “blocked using a tape” in booths in Falta, Diamond Harbour. He called it the “Diamond Harbour Model” and sought repolling in affected booths. The area is linked to Abhishek Banerjee. The TMC denied the charge. Spokesperson Riju Dutta said, “We are not doing it,” and blamed election officials. State election chief Manoj Agarwal said action is being taken on complaints. (PC: NDTV)
