Bengal polls: ECI lodges FIR against TMC leader Anubrata Mondal for violating rule
Earlier in the morning, Anubrata Mondal cast his vote in Birbhum and entered into his booth wearing TMC's logo on his shirt.
When he was asked about this, Mondal told IBNS, "This was an unintentional mistake. Why did the presiding officer allow me into the booth?"
Besides lodging FIR against Anubrata Mondal, the ECI has asked a report on the incident from district's magistrate.
Meanwhile, Anubrata Mondal has been kept under 24x7 surveillance by ECI until the election process is over (Till May 22).
