Centre defends in Supreme Court appointment of 2 new ECs under new rules
The Centre has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court defending the appointment of two election commissioners under the chief election commissioner and Other election commissioners Act, 2023. It argues that the Act safeguards the Election Commission's constitutional integrity and fosters democratic mechanisms. Excluding the Chief Justice of India from the selection panel is upheld, citing independence not reliant on judicial presence.
