AGARTALA, Feb 24 (TIWN): CPI-M State Secretary Bijan Dhar has demanded re-polling in Takarjala constituency, expressing resentment that categorically the Takarjala was cancelled from re-polling.
"We are waiting for EC's response to our demand. Via media we are urging them", said Dhar.
"The way CEO has sent the reports to Election Commission it's clear that his role is partial and exactly those booths were selected for re-polling, where CPI-M's winning chance is sure, so that oppositions get another chance".
Bijan Dhar further said, "It's quite surprising there is no mention of Takarjala. We demand EC's decision on Takarjala's re-poll. Moreover, the current scenario says that peaceful vote counting at Takarjala is not possible and thus counting centre should also be removed from the there. Along with Takarjala, Golaghati's counting should also be shifted"
"We wanted to meet the CEO yesterday but he was busy in a video conference", said Dhar.
