Kolkata, Nov 1: CM Mamata Banerjee will lead a mega march in Kolkata on Tuesday, protesting the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, which will begin in the state on that day.
Banerjee, who heads the ruling TMC, will be joined by her nephew Abhishek Banerjee, the national general secretary of the party, in the rally. The march, which will start near the BR Ambedkar statue at Maidan, will culminate near Rabindranath Tagore’s residence at Jorasanko.
TMC has been criticising the SIR since the exercise was carried out in Bihar a few months back. The party has also taken on the BJP after three people allegedly died by suicide in the state, fearing that their names would be deleted from the voters’ list following the SIR. (PTI)
