West Bengal BJP President Sukanta Majumdar held a dharna (sit-in protest) outside a counting centre at Balurghat College under Dakshin Dinajpur district late on July 12 alleging fabrication in Panchayat poll results, counting for which started earlier in the day. Alleging the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) of fabricating the results, State BJP Chief Majumdar said that he will be opting for legal action in the matter.
"Despite our candidates winning the elections, the results are being fabricated. The ruling party has brought criminals inside the counting centre to help their candidates win by rigging the counting. The Block Development Officer (BDO) is biased and is an agent of TMC," Said Sukanta Majumdar
“We will go for legal action," he added upon being asked about his next step.
