Kolkata, May 4 (IANS) Ahead of the sixth and final phase of the West Bengal assembly polls on Thursday, the Election Commission has asked the West Bengal government to ensure that IPS officer Bharati Ghosh does not leave her station of duty till the conclusion of polls, officials said.
Before the polls began on April 4, Ghosh was transferred from her post of Officer on Special Duty (Left Wing Extremism) to the slot of Special Superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Department (Kolkata).
