Trinamool Congress lodges complaint with ECI against West Bengal Governor

The Trinamool Congress on Friday lodged a complaint with the Election Commission of India against Governor C.V. Ananda Bose for allegedly interfering with the Lok Sabha election process. In a letter addressed to the Chief Election Commissioner, the Trinamool Congress has alleged that the Governor was running an office parallel to the ECI.

The Trinamool Congress said that Raj Bhavan has lodged a new portal ‘Log Sabha’ to listen to the grievances of voters and directly connect with them during the elections. “In such circumstances, we call upon you to restrain C.V. Ananda Bose from running a parallel electioneering system of so-called reporting of complaints and supervising the elections under the name and style of Log Sabha,” the Trinamool letter stated.
