On Saturday, chaotic scenes unfolded during repolling at 15 polling booths in South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, as clashes erupted between supporters of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Trinamool Congress (TMC). The Election Commission ordered the repolling due to allegations of electoral malpractice and vote tampering. By 3 PM, voter turnout exceeded 72% in both constituencies, but violence broke out as BJP supporters accused TMC workers of preventing them from voting. In response, police resorted to lathi charges and detained several individuals. In the Falta Assembly constituency, locals protested against TMC workers, alleging harassment and threats. TMC candidate Jehangir Khan dismissed these claims, suggesting they were orchestrated by the BJP. The Election Commission responded by deploying 165 additional counting observers and 77 police observers to ensure the integrity of the counting process. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court declined to intervene in a TMC plea regarding the presence of central government personnel during vote counting, a decision welcomed by the BJP as a blow to TMC's credibility.
