West Bengal Polls LIVE: Huge turnout of women, says EC as polling ends

West Bengal election 2021 LIVE updates: Polling in the fifth phase of the West Bengal Assembly Election 2021 is underway across 45 constituencies spread over six districts. So far, 16.15% voter turnout has been recorded. The campaigning for the fifth phase ended at 6pm on Wednesday, as the Trinamool Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) continued trading blows over the recent killings of four men by central security personnel at Cooch Behar's Sitalkuchi, where polls were held last Saturday. In Phase 5 of the West Bengal assembly elections six districts -- Jalpaiguri, Kalimpong, Darjeeling, Nadia, North 24 Parganas, and Purba Bardhaman -- go into polls.
