The Supreme Court observed that Mamata Banerjee and All India Trinamool Congress leaders may pursue fresh legal action over West Bengal election results where victory margins were allegedly lower than voters removed during the controversial electoral roll revision exercise.
The Supreme Court of India questioned if the Enforcement Directorate was alleging a breakdown of constitutional machinery in West Bengal over the Kolkata I-PAC raid involving Mamata Banerjee. “We hope you are not arguing ‘breakdown of constitutional machinery’,” Justice N. V. Anjaria told SG Tushar Mehta during the hearing.
Mamata Banerjee said the “administration is not in my hand” and alleged a plan to impose President’s Rule after the Supreme Court of India criticised the state over the Malda judicial officers hostage incident. She urged people not to resort to violence and not to obstruct judges during the electoral roll revision process.
