“Cast your vote freely, we’ll ensure your safety”: CRPF officer
With the Assembly elections approaching, a Central Reserve Police Force officer has assured residents in rural areas of West Bengal that they can vote freely and without fear.
CRPF officer Rajeev Chandra Sinha interacted with villagers during a field visit, urging them to exercise their democratic right without any intimidation. He advised voters to report immediately if anyone attempts to threaten or influence them, and reassured them that security personnel are always available to assist.
He emphasized that adequate security arrangements are in place across sensitive areas to ensure a peaceful and fair voting process. According to him, central forces will remain deployed before, during, and after polling as part of standard election security measures.
Election authorities and security agencies are working jointly to maintain law and order across the state. Their focus, officials said, is to ensure that voters can participate safely and that the electoral process remains free, fair, and peaceful.
