Kolkata, Apr 7 (IBNS): West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee on Monday attacked the Election Commission of India over the transfer of some state officials and said she will fight alone and will not bow down before it.

She called the commission's decision a 'conspiracy'.

 " I came to know in this meeting that the Election Commission has given order for transfer of five SPs without consulting state government. The names of their replacement have also been announced," she said while addressing a poll rally in at Pandua town.

"I respect the Election Commission. But i am not going to bow down," Banerjee said.

"Will you only listen to what Congress will say in order to facilitate victory of Congress, BJP?" the Chief Minister said.

Calling the move a conspiracy, she said: "It is a conspiracy by a media house, the central government, the Congress, the EC, the BJP and  the CPI-M. I am going to fight alone. I don't care for your conspiracy."
