Mamata Banerjee Deploys Bengal Force for Delhi Security Amidst EC Tensions

• Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is dispatching 20-25 additional security personnel from Kolkata to Delhi.
• The force, including a DSP-rank officer and RAF, will secure Mamata Banerjee and Bengal government properties like Bang Bhavan.
• This move comes amidst heightened tensions after Banerjee boycotted an Election Commission meeting, calling it a 'BJP agent'.
• Bengal security sources suggest Banerjee is avoiding risks of potential protests or untoward situations in Delhi.
• She prefers her 'trusted' force over Delhi Police, following accusations of voter deletion and discrimination against the EC.

Why It Matters: Mamata Banerjee is deploying her own security force to Delhi, citing distrust in local police and EC.
