Supreme Court to hear Jairam Ramesh's plea against curbs on access to poll records
The Supreme Court issued notices to the Centre and Election Commission after Congress's Jairam Ramesh challenged an amendment curtailing public access to election records, including CCTV footage. Ramesh argues this restricts the public's right to information under Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution and threatens election transparency. The court has scheduled a hearing for next March.
