Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday took stock of the political situation in West Bengal in a meeting with key BJP leaders of the state, including its president Samik Bhattacharya and national general secretary in-charge Sunil Bansal, as the party steps up its preparation for the assembly polls next year.
Bhattacharya said the prevailing political situation and emerging issues were discussed in the meeting, but did not elaborate.
Asked about the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, which the Election Commission has suggested will be rolled out in other states after Bihar and is being bitterly resisted by opposition parties, he said the next year's polls will be held on a "flawless voters list".
