She claimed that the electoral process has effectively been hijacked and alleged that vote counting was also rigged.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mamata stated that she believes irregularities involving approximately 9.2 million (92 lakh) voters or votes occurred in West Bengal. She claimed that the figure exceeds 130 million (13 crore) nationwide. However, these figures and allegations have not been independently verified by the Election Commission.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mamata also raised the issue of software usage in the electoral system. Citing a software engineer named Seema Khanna, she questioned the origin of the software and its connection to the electoral system. She further alleged that evidence was destroyed by burning EVMs. Mamata asserted that Gyanesh Kumar should not remain in office as the head of the Election Commission for even another moment, warning that the movement would escalate if he did not resign immediately.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mamata called upon the country&#8217;s students, youth, women, and ordinary citizens to join this movement in the interest of protecting democracy and the Constitution. She stated that the opposition would fight together and continue the agitation to safeguard democracy and the Constitution. Earlier, the opposition alliance meeting discussed the Election Commission&#8217;s functioning, the special intensive revision of voter lists, and a joint program demanding the removal of the Chief Election Commissioner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although some alliance parties did not attend the meeting in person, reports indicate they have extended their support to the demand for action against Gyanesh Kumar. Mamata&#8217;s remarks make it clear that the opposition&#8217;s movement regarding the Election Commission and voter list revisions is likely to intensify in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Read the news and share your views.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>International Desk \/\/ Speaking at a press conference in New Delhi on Wednesday following a crucial meeting of the opposition alliance, she stated that Gyanesh Kumar must resign immediately.
