BJP's Bengal victory raises concerns over India's election integrity
The BJP's landslide win in West Bengal (207 of 293 seats) marks a historic shift, but a controversial voter roll review—which removed or challenged nearly 12% of the electorate, disproportionately affecting Muslims and migrants—raises serious doubts about the election's fairness. Analysts argue that the scale of disenfranchisement may have exceeded victory margins in many constituencies, prompting concerns that India has crossed from manipulation to mass disenfranchisement.
