Terming the Election Commission 바카라dysfunctional바카라 and a 바카라failed바카라 institution, Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal has claimed that a large section of the people do not have faith in the poll body as it has not discharged its functions in accordance with its constitutional responsibilities.
In an interview with PTI, Sibal said the quicker the issue of lack of faith in the Election Commission is dealt with, the greater is the chance of saving democracy.
The Election Commission is a dysfunctional body that has failed to carry out its duties as expected under the Constitution, Kapil Sibal stated when asked about the Congress and TMC's allegations regarding irregularities in the voter list.
He further described the Election Commission as a "failed institution," adding that there is a lack of confidence in it among a significant portion of the country's population.
바카라Therefore, the quicker we deal with this issue, the greater is the chance of saving democracy,바카라 Sibal said.
바카라The message to the opposition is that apart from the EVMs, there are some really serious issues which in fact suggest that the process of elections is polluted,바카라 he said.
The results that have come about may have been the result of manipulations at many levels, Sibal claimed.
바카라We need to address that issue together,바카라 the former Congress leader asserted.
His remarks come in the backdrop of the Congress and INDIA bloc parties repeatedly raising issues of voter lists, including abnormally high additions, unexpected deletions and duplicate voter ID numbers.
The Election Commission on Saturday said over 4,000 of its electoral registration officers are holding all-party meetings to resolve pending polling booth level issues in their respective assembly seats.
The meetings are in line with the poll body바카라s recent decision to hold interactions with parties at multiple levels in the state to resolve complaints. The EC has also decided to explore the possibility of linking voter cards with Aadhaar and involve birth and death registration authorities to clean up voter rolls.
