The Election Commission is facing intense scrutiny and criticism from the Congress and other opposition parties. The controversy was ignited by a presentation made by Rahul Gandhi. The Election Commission responded to the allegations with a press conference on Sunday, defending its actions and cautioning the opposition against political maneuvering.
Following this, opposition parties have voiced their dissatisfaction. During a meeting of the India bloc, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge raised the subject of bringing an impeachment motion against the CEC. A formal proposal was introduced during the meeting, although a final resolution is still pending.
