Election Commission Orders Raids in West Bengal Amid Concerns Over Election Violence

Kolkata: The noise of campaigning for the assembly elections in West Bengal is going to stop this evening. Before this, the top leaders of all the political parties are campaigning in full force. But on the last day of the campaign for the Bengal elections, shocking information came to light when it was revealed that the team of NIA and other agencies are conducting raids on the instructions of the Election Commission in many districts of Bengal. Usually during the election campaign, the raids by the NIA or other central agencies are less. But in the Bengal elections, it has finally become necessary that on the last day of the campaign, the Commission had to issue a directive to conduct state-wide raids to control the election violence. This time the voting in Bengal has been peaceful in comparison to the first phase. But sporadic incidents of violence have been reported from many places in the first phase. On the other hand, the electoral history of Bengal has been mentioned along with the firing of stones and bombs in the second phase.
