West Bengal Election 2026 LIVE:West Bengal Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Manoj Agarwal on Wednesday said repolling is likely to be announced in booths where EVMs would be found tampered with. The CEO said that a repoll will be ordered only after the authorities get reports from the district election officer or election observers on allegations of tampering with EVMs using tapes or blot of ink.

West Bengal Polls Phase 2: Polling in the remaining 142 Assembly constituencies is underway in second phase of voting in West Bengal across seven districts. Amid the voting, incidents of chaos and violence have been reported from multiple districts. A BJP polling agent from Nadia was injured in an attack allegedly by TMC workers. The RG Kar rape and murder victim’s mother, who is a BJP candidate, has alleged attack by TMC workers. The TMC, on the other hand, has accused the BJP of using official machinery to intimidate voters. By the end of voting, in the second phase of the election, 91.94 per cent voter turnout was recorded in West Bengal.

Final additions in electoral roll: Just before this concluding phase of Bengal elections, 1,468 names were added back to the state’s electoral roll on Tuesday, taking the total number of electors eligible for today’s voting to 3.22 crore. In the last supplementary list, ahead of the first phase of Assembly elections for 154 seats, 139 names had been included. After the adjudication process had marked out 27.10 lakh names for deletion due to “logical discrepancies”, the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) emerged as a highly politically sensitive issue this elections.

Which seats are voting today? Among the 142 seats voting today, Kolkata has 11, North 24 Parganas 33, South 24 Parganas 31, Nadia 17, Howrah 16, Hooghly 18, while Purba Bardhaman has 16. In Kolkata, Bhabanipur remains a prestige seat where Chief Minister and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee will battle it out with BJP’s Suvendu Adhikari. This is a high-stakes replay of 2021 Nandigram duel where Adhikari defeated Banerjee just after defecting to the BJP. Counting of votes polled in the Assembly elections in Bengal — along with Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry — is scheduled for May 4.
