NDA Allies Urge Election Commission to Clarify Position on Electoral Roll RevisionPreviousNext

Union Minister Chirag Paswan and other NDA allies, including Upendra Kushwaha and Telugu Desam Party leaders, have urged the Election Commission of India (ECI) to clarify its position amid reports of internal dissent over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Paswan emphasized the need for the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar to address public concerns to maintain trust in the electoral process, while distancing himself from opposition allegations. The ECI has stated that differing views are part of institutional deliberations and that final decisions were unanimous.
