West Bengal sees record voter turnout, ECI flags irregularities, repoll likely in select booths
West Bengal witnessed its highest voter turnout since Independence. The second phase of polling was largely peaceful, with no reported deaths during the campaign or on voting day. This high participation sets a national precedent. While most areas saw smooth voting, isolated incidents of alleged irregularities and attacks were reported. A decision on re-polling in specific booths is pending review.
