TMC Protests Over Booth Level Agent Presence at Bengal Election Hearings

Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers protested across West Bengal, demanding Booth Level Agents (BLAs) be present at hearing centers, leading to halted proceedings in some areas. A TMC delegation met the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) to discuss concerns, including the insistence on Form 6 and the denial of BLA-2 presence. The CEO reportedly assured action and communication with Delhi regarding discrepancies, while also stating that individuals from the 2002 list did not require re-hearing. TMC leaders asserted the democratic right for BLAs to attend hearings.
