ECI Summons Bengal Chief Secy After No Action Against Officials Over Rolls
The New Indian Express Bhubaneswar
|August 13, 2025
A day after the West Bengal government wrote to the Election Commission of India that it doesn't intend to suspend just yet its officers alleged to have committed "irregularities" in electoral roll revision, the poll panel on Tuesday summoned state Chief Secretary Manoj Pant to Delhi to explain the decision, sources said.
The state's top bureaucrat was directed to report in person to the ECI headquarters by 5 pm on August 13. The move came in response to Pant's communication to the ECI on Monday, stating that suspending the identified officers and filing FIRs against them, as directed by the poll panel, would be "disproportionately harsh" and have a "demoralising impact" on the officers' community in Bengal.
