Speaking at a Trinamool Congress state conference, Banerjee raised concerns over the appointment of Gyanesh Kumar as the Chief Election Commissioner, alleging that the BJP was attempting to exert influence over the constitutional body. "It is evident how the BJP is tampering with the voters' list with the blessings of the Election Commission," she alleged.
