New Delhi: The Election Commission Wednesday told the Trinamool Congress that its suggestion to club the remaining three phases of West Bengal assembly polls was not implementable.
In a letter to the Trinamool Congress, the poll panel cited election law and various steps it has taken to ensure safety of voters in view of the coronavirus pandemic to rule out any change in the poll schedule for the state.
While phase six of the West Bengal polls is scheduled April 22, the seventh and eighth phases are April 26 and 29.
