Congress Leader Anand Sharma Calls for Election Commission to Regain Credibility Amid Ink Row

Senior Congress leader Anand Sharma stated that the Election Commission of India (ECI) is losing credibility and public trust, urging the body to address concerns raised by Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi. Gandhi accused the ECI of 'gaslighting' citizens amid allegations over the quality of indelible ink used in Maharashtra civic polls, which the Maharashtra State Election Commission is investigating. Sharma also highlighted apprehensions about voter roll revisions and potential Electronic Voting Machine tampering, calling for corrective measures to restore confidence.
