West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday wrote a letter to Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, seeking “immediate intervention” into state CEO's decision to appoint private data-entry operators for the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and a proposal to set up polling booths inside private residential complexes.

“It has recently come to light that the CEO, West Bengal, has directed District Election Officers (DEOs) not to engage contractual data entry operators and Bangla Sahyata Kendra (BSK) staff for SIR-related or other election-related data work... Simultaneously, the CEO's office has floated a Request for Proposal (REP) for hiring 1,000 Data Entry Operators and 50 Software Developers for a period of one year,” the CM said in the letter, which she shared on X.
