The BJP further demanded that videos received by the Commission be made public to reveal the truth and know the real sequence of events.

"This would also put to rest the smear campaign attempted by the Trinamool Congress against the Election Commission and opposition parties," said the BJP memorandum submitted to ECI.

The BJP further demanded that strict action be taken against Trinamool leaders for breach of model code of conduct and under various electoral laws against the errant and irresponsible allegations.

"A special observer must be appointed for the Nandigram Assembly constituency considering that it is a sensitive seat," the BJP demanded.
