The BJP attributes Bengal's record voter turnout to Hindu consolidation, asserting it signals a significant shift against Mamata Banerjee's leadership. Citing communal tensions and safety concerns, the party claims voters are demanding accountability and change. BJP also dismissed Chief Minister Banerjee's apprehensions about EVM malpractices as a desperate attempt to deflect from the election's outcome.
