Election Commission Revises Work Allocation Order After Internal Dispute
The Election Commission of India issued a fresh work allocation order on November 4, resolving a dispute over the July 28 order that reassigned responsibilities within the commission. The earlier order had shifted IT and grievance-related duties from Deputy Election Commissioner Sanjay Kumar to Director General (IT) Seema Khanna, prompting objections from Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi. The new order reinstates the IT Director's reporting to the Deputy Election Commissioner, addressing concerns raised by the commissioners about the allocation process and reporting structure.
