Mamata slams EC over cops transfer

NDTV, Indian express

The transfer of four top West Bengal police officers ordered by the Election Commission days before national polls has triggered an ugly war of words. In an unusually sharp letter, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has written to the poll body that the order was "highly arbitrary, motivated and biased" and was issued "at behest of the BJP". The EC order to replace four police officers including the Kolkata Police Commissioner was issued Friday night, preventing them from being posted for any election related duties.
