Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and former Chief Minister of Delhi, reached out to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to offer his support ahead of the crucial Assembly elections. The elections for the 294-member West Bengal Legislative Assembly will be held in two phases, on April 23 and April 29, with the counting of votes taking place on May 4. In a message posted on social media platform ‘X’, Kejriwal highlighted the significance of Banerjee's struggle, calling it one of the most important battles for Indian democracy. He expressed confidence that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would face defeat despite alleged misuse of institutions. Additionally, Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar assured that the Election Commission of India (ECI) is committed to conducting free, fair, and transparent elections, emphasizing the need for a peaceful voting environment. To facilitate this, the West Bengal government has launched a 24-hour helpline for voters to report any election-related issues.
