West Bengal voter list controversy escalates as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee escalates political pressure. The TMC leader claims approximately 27.6 lakh voters remain under adjudication following the Special Intensive Revision process, with only 32 lakh names restored so far despite court intervention. Banerjee has threatened to approach the Supreme Court if valid voter names are not reinstated, raising concerns about potential franchise deprivation ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. A tense meeting between TMC delegation and the Election Commission ended acrimoniously, with both sides trading allegations over conduct and procedural fairness. The political standoff underscores growing tensions between state administration and electoral authorities regarding voter registration integrity and electoral process credibility.
