Kerala Assembly Passes Resolution Seeking Removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar
The Kerala Legislative Assembly passed a resolution seeking the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, citing concerns over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and the disenfranchisement of eligible voters. Moved by Chief Minister V D Satheesan, the resolution also calls for restoring voting rights to affected voters and restructuring the selection committee for Election Commissioners to include the Prime Minister, Leader of the Opposition, and Chief Justice of India. The resolution received support from the ruling United Democratic Front and opposition Left Democratic Front, while BJP members opposed it.
