Trinamool Congress MLA Sonali Guha, who was caught on camera allegedly ordering party workers to beat up CPI-M polling agents in her Satgachia constituency during voting today, claimed she had done nothing wrong even as Election Commission ordered filing of an FIR against her.
"Beat up and drive out CPI-M agents, they have damaged the EVM," Guha, also deputy speaker in the outgoing West Bengal assembly, was heard saying over her mobile phone. The conversation was recorded by TV channels.
When contacted for her reaction to the EC's order, Guha told PTI: "I have done no wrong and I don't want to give any reaction."
Asked whether she had indeed asked her party cadres to assault CPI(M) agents, Guha said, "I will just say I have done no wrong."
Satgachia, from where Guha is seeking re-election, is in South 24 Parganas district which went to the polls in the fifth and penultimate phase today.
