Ahead of upcoming assembly polls, BJP’s West Bengal co-in-charge and IT Head Amit Malviya slammed the Trinamool Congress accusing that Mamata Banerjee’s government is using ambulances in its election campaign.
Taking to Twitter, Malviya from his official account drew attention when he wrote, “In a gross violation of the Model Code of Conduct, the West Bengal government’s health department is operating ambulances with large posters of Mamata Banerjee, who herself is the candidate of ongoing Assembly elections. Will the Election Commission take note of this and several other posters across government properties?”

Last week, the TMC govt also filed a complaint for distributing COVID-19 vaccination certificates with a photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on it. Responding to this, the election commission later asked the Central government to remove the photograph from COVID-19 vaccination certificates in four poll-bound states and one Union territory.
Elections in Bengal will be held in eight phases on March 27, April 1, 6, 10, 17, 22, 26 and 29, making it the longest ever polls in the state. The votes will be counted on May 2.
