Buddhadeb takes exception to EC

Kolkata, Apr 17 (UNI) West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee today took strong exception to the deletion of the names of ''genuine'' voters from the electoral rolls.

The Election Commission had deleted the names of some ''genuine'' voters from the electoral list, branding them as ''Bangladeshis''.

'' Our party has already informed to the EC in this regard, '' Mr Bhattacharjee said in a statement.

He came down heavily on a local vernacular daily for publishing a report quoting him, which according to him, was malicious and motivated.
