The West Bengal government on Thursday informed the Election Commission (EC) that it has complied with its directive to suspend four officials involved in alleged irregularities while preparing electoral rolls. However, it refused to register an FIR against the officials.
Chief Secretary Manoj Pant, who had met officials at the EC headquarters in Delhi on August 13 after the government agreed to remove only two personnel from active poll duty, informed the EC about the government’s latest action.
