New Delhi. The Election Commission has issued a statement regarding the recent allegations of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. According to sources, the commission has clarified that the allegations made by Rahul Gandhi are “baseless” and so far they have not sought any time to meet the Commission, nor have they sent any formal complaint or letter.
According to the Election Commission, Rahul Gandhi has neither sought time to meet the Commission nor has submitted any complaint or letter. The Commission raised the question that when he has a complaint, why are they not coming to meet?
The Election Commission also clarified that the Congress party has been duly responded to by the Commission on 24 December 2024, which is available on the Election Commission website.
The Commission has advised the district presidents of the Congress to appoint booth level agents (BLA) at all booths in their respective areas and actively participate in the updated process of the voter list. This process takes place regularly before elections every year.
The Election Commission said that training programs for BLA of all political parties are already running in the training institute of the Commission. If the Congress does not want to participate in it, then it should believe that the booth level officers (BLOs) are appointed by the Election Registration Officers (ERO) under Section 13B (2) of the RP Act 1950.
The Commission said that the preparation, voting and counting of voter list are responsible for the ERO, PRO and RO respectively, who work under the direction and control of the Election Commission under Article 324. However, the voters eventually decide who they want to choose.
The Election Commission, taking a sarcasm at the Congress, said that if a political party already wants to prepare for electoral results, it should be done in the political field, not a perception that it is “fighting the referee”.
The Commission said that the voters of India are so intelligent that they can know why the Congress starts accusing the Commission after losing the election every time.
