The Election Commission targeted TMC in an X post and dubbed it "straight-talk". "This time, elections in West Bengal would surely be fear-free, violence-free, intimidation-free, inducement-free and without chappa and booth jamming," it wrote. The post, which garnered over 1.1 million views, came after TMC leader Derek O'Brien claimed CEC Gyanesh Kumar told him to "get lost" during a meeting.
