West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee Claims She Was Pushed, Assaulted At Counting Centre In Front Of CRPF

West Bengal CM and Trinamool Congress Chief Mamata Banerjee, on May 4, alleged that she was denied entry, pushed, and assaulted at a counting centre in front of CRPF personnel. The allegation comes at a time when the TMC is set to lose the West Bengal Assembly elections following the BJP’s strong performance.

"From 3 pm onwards, they have been beating us. I was hit. CCTV was switched off. None of our agents was allowed inside (the counting centre). The DO assured me our agents would be allowed, but after that, he was not available anywhere. I complained everywhere," Banerjee said.

West Bengal CM Launches Attack On Authorities

Sensing political defeat following the conclusion of the West Bengal Assembly Elections 2026, CM Mamata Banerjee accused the Election Commission of India of being the BJP’s commission.

The ECI was not the only target of the TMC supremo; she also accused the Central Forces of colluding with the Prime Minister and the Home Minister to help the saffron party cement its victory. She further claimed that more than 100 seats were “looted.”

“More than 100 seats were looted by the BJP. The Election Commission is the BJP’s commission. I complained to the CO and also to Manoj Agrawal, but they are not doing anything. Do you think this is a victory? It is an immoral victory, not a moral victory. Whatever the Election Commission has done, along with the Central Forces and the Prime Minister and Home Minister, is totally illegal. It is loot, loot, loot. We will bounce back,” she said.
