ECI came to this decision based on allegations both from BJP and TMC. Stern charges from the TMC of unauthorized opening of ballot boxes/EVMs (though the ECI initially rejected these, they have identified specific procedural lapses in these 77 booths). Reports of booth capturing and voters being prevented from entering polling stations during the main phase by TMC.

Many booths became blind spots as deliberate disconnection of webcasting equipment during the voting hours.
