New twists followed the dramatic Bhabanipur bypoll, which will secure Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's position in West Bengal, on Wednesday after the Returning Officer sent a notice to BJP candidate Priyanka Tibrewal to stop further rallies.

Tibrewal has been asked to reply by 5 pm on why permission for further rallies should not be revoked. The notice cited violation of model code of conduct and Covid-19 protocols by them on the day of filing of her nomination, on September 13.

On Tuesday, the BJP had raised objection to Mamata's nomination for Bhabanipur citing the lack of details of criminal records in her nomination papers.
