Malda, Apr 11 (ANI): Coming down strongly against the CPI (M) and the Left Front Government for ignoring the needs of the people in matters related to development, Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee said the coming vote is for change.
Addressing a rally here, Banerjee said that even after more than 30 years of rule, the Left Front has not been able to provide basic facilities like water and electricity and people would vote them out in the upcoming polls.
"Even today there is no electricity, drinking water and irrigation facility in many villages. Therefore, you have to go, as people would definitely vote you out," Banerjee added.
She further said the CPI(M) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had entered into a pact to divide anti-Left votes in the coming election.
"The CPI(M) and BJP were working in tandem to divide anti-Left votes. Therefore voting for the BJP means voting for CPI(M). I appeal to you not to vote for BJP," she added.
The state will have elections in six phases. The first phase of voting will take place on April 18, second phase on April 23, third phase on April 27, fourth phase on May 3, fifth phase on May 7 and sixth phase on May 10.
The total number of assembly constituencies in West Bengal is 294, of which 68 are reserved for the Scheduled Castes and 16 for the Scheduled Tribes.
The Election Commission has said that polling will take place at 51,919 polling stations. (ANI)
