MEANWHILE IN WEST BENGAL: 25,000 voter cards with 'same number' found in 11 Bengal constituencies - Including Kurseong, Matigara-Naxalbari.

The Election Commission has identified 11 of Bengal’s 294 Assembly constituencies with over 25,000 voter cards that share identical identification numbers.

The discovery of multiple voter cards with identical numbers raised concerns in the commission as it came days after the office of the state chief electoral officer released the draft voter list on November 11 with 7.4 crore voter names, where some 16 lakh names were corrected or deleted.

The Telegraph has reported that there are two Assembly seats Matigara-Naxalbari (Darjeeling) and — Bongaon Dakshin (North 24-Parganas) — where most voter cards with identical identification numbers were traced.

They said that repeated Epic (electoral photo identity card) or multiple voter ID cards with the same number were also found in Kurseong, Siliguri, Falakata Bongaon Uttar, Madhyamgram, Rajarhat-Gopalpur, Canning Purba, Baruipur Purba and Paschim.

One of our readers writes...

"Kalimpong residents are forced to inhale tohic fumes for the past many days, because the Municipality seems to be indifferent to what's happening here.

Location: Ward No. 7, Topkhana-CST Fatak, Kalimpong."

Would Kalimpong Municipality be so laxed in cleaning up this mess, if Mamata Banerjee was visiting the town?

The AQI of Siliguri West Bengal is a matter of concern, it was never like this last year. We should learn from the examples of how states like Delhi and U.P. are struggling.
