Supreme Court decision on deploying central forces for West Bengal panchayat polls moral defeat for TMC: BJP
India’s BJP party has welcomed a Supreme Court ruling that central forces must be deployed to ensure the safety of people taking part in upcoming panchayat elections in West Bengal. Party spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said the decision was an “advice to the state election commission” to guarantee democratic processes, rather than act as a “tool of the state government”.
