LS SIR debate: Opposition demands electoral integrity as ruling BJP defends reforms

New Delhi, Dec 10 (UNI) The Lok Sabha on Wednesday witnessed a fierce debate on election reforms with the Opposition demanding greater electoral integrity and accusing the ruling party of undermining democratic processes. Congress leader KC Venugopal launched a scathing attack on the Election Commission, alleging it has become partisan and is enabling “vote chori” (vote theft).
He asserted, “The idea of an impartial electoral umpire has been openly crushed,” emphasising that the right to vote is a fundamental democratic principle, not a privilege granted by any government. Venugopal also highlighted concerns over large-scale deletion of voters in Bihar and the freezing of Congress party accounts ahead of the 2024 elections, describing these moves as politically motivated.
Responding robustly, BJP’s Ravi Shankar Prasad accused the Opposition of applying double standards, stating, “When they win, the Election Commission is fine, but when we win, they claim it’s flawed.”
