“A SCHOOL TEACHER OF BANGABHOOMI STATE: 'There is 
no guarantee that we will not get attacked while doing 
our duty in the Panchayat Election of Bangabhoomi in 2018, 
unless and until there is deployment of Military force. 
Already, a case is going on regarding the security issues 
of this Panchayat Election. Is the Election Commission of 
Bangabhoomi State waiting for the order from Kolkata 
High Court to deploy military force on the polling days ?'

A POLICEMAN OF BANGABHOOMI STATE: 'We also don't 
have enough security of ourselves on the polling days ! 
Those Civic Volunteers are just volunteers only. By sending 
letters to other states for extra number of policemen, 
the administration of Bangabhoomi State is indirectly 
declaring that enough number of policemen are not available 
for the polling days. So, deployment of military force for this 
election is a necessity. Peaceful voting process on the 
polling days will give a positive indication 
that democracy still exists in Bangabhoomi.'”- Arindam Sain
