Mahadangal: Election War Heats Up ,BJP Defends, Congress Attacks ECI | ABP NEWS

A fiery political showdown unfolded during a televised debate as representatives from major parties clashed over the opposition’s allegations of voter fraud and threats to impeach Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. With elections nearing in Bihar, the opposition, including Congress and RJD, intensified their accusations, claiming large-scale irregularities in the electoral rolls—such as fake entries and wrongful deletions. Congress spokesperson Atul Londhe and RJD’s Ravishankar Ravi insisted that the Election Commission failed to provide credible explanations or transparency. They cited Supreme Court directives demanding clarity on missing voter data and discrepancies in the voter verification process. In defense, BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari strongly countered the opposition’s claims, accusing them of creating false narratives after facing electoral setbacks. He labeled their impeachment push a political stunt and reminded viewers of Congress’s past attempts to influence constitutional institutions. Tensions peaked as personal jabs, accusations of bias, and heated exchanges dominated the discussion. Allegations of misuse of voter data, favoritism, and political interference have placed the Election Commission at the center of a constitutional and political crisis. The core question remains: Is this a democratic accountability check, or a strategic move to discredit institutions ahead of crucial elections?
