A delegation from the Trinamool Congress (TMC) sought to meet with the Election Commission of India (ECI) panel, alleging that the Enforcement Directorate (ED), National Investigation Agency (NIA), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and Income Tax Department were creating havoc in West Bengal under the influence of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In protest, TMC leaders, including Derek O'Brien and Sagarika Ghose, staged a 24-hour dharna outside the ECI office in Delhi. They demanded the immediate replacement of the chiefs of central agencies, accusing the central government of misusing these agencies. The protest saw TMC leaders raising slogans against the Centre, with claims of being forcefully picked up by the police during their peaceful protest.
