"...Some goons, workers of TMC are trying to capture the roads and create problems for the people. I have requested the Election Commission to disperse them but they again come back and sit there. TMC wants to reduce the voter turnout because they know that the maximum number of voters are going to vote against TMC. They are scared so they want to disturb the voting process. We are not going to let them capture any booth, not I am going to let TMC win in Berhampore..." Chowdhury said.
