Hours after party supremo Mamata Banerjee urged Trinamool leaders, workers and polling agents to maintain a 24-hour vigil over strongrooms housing EVMs, party candidates Kunal Ghosh and Shashi Panja staged a sit-in protest at Khudiram Anushilan Kendra on Thursday, alleging irregular activities inside the facility.
The protest came a day after the second phase of polling in West Bengal on Wednesday (April 29, 2026), following which EVMs were stored in strongrooms at the centre.
