Lok Sabha elections: EC’s response to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge’s letter ‘permanent blot’ on institution
Friday, 10 May 2024
The meeting with ECI came after Kharge in a letter on Wednesday wrote opposition parties underlining the “inordinate” delay in the release of final voter turnout of first two phases and a jump of around 5.5% over the initial projection. In an unusual move, the EC on Friday responded to Kharge's letter to fellow INDIA bloc leaders that was also posted on X, and rejected his allegations.
