TMS leaders met the Election Commission

Earlier on Monday, Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders once again raised the issue of misuse of central agencies in Bengal. In this matter, a delegation of TMC leaders including Derek O'Brien, Dola Sen, Saket Gokhale, and Sagarika Ghosh met the Election Commission with their demands.

 

During this, the TMC delegation demanded that the heads of CBI, NIA, ED, and Income Tax Department should be changed. It is known that TMC has been continuously alleging that the central investigative agencies are targeting opposition parties at the behest of the BJP-led Centre.
