'Gyanesh Kumar Has No Option But To Leave': Ashutosh The INDIA bloc held a key meeting in Delhi amid the opposition's escalating campaign against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the Election Commission. The meeting focused on the opposition's demand for Kumar's resignation and a coordinated strategy over issues including SIR, electoral rolls and alleged irregularities in the poll process. Speaking on the controversy, senior journalist Ashutosh questioned why the BJP was defending Gyanesh Kumar and argued that the Election Commission's decisions have raised fundamental questions about the functioning of the electoral system. Referring to an Indian Express investigation and reported objections raised by Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi, Ashutosh questioned the reported centralisation of voter lists and decisions allegedly taken without the approval of the full Commission.
