• Sen's family denied receiving any notice, stating his enumeration form was duly filled and he has voted previously.
• Election officials indicated a possible computer-generated spelling error in the notice, not a deliberate targeting.
• Banerjee used the alleged notice to rally support against BJP, aiming for 250 assembly seats and all 11 Birbhum seats.
• Other personalities like actor Dev and cricketer Mohammed Shami were also claimed to have received similar notices.
