‘If You Still Have Any Issues…’: EC Invites Rahul Gandhi to ‘Discuss Allegations on Maharashtra Assembly Polls’

  • On June 12, the national election authority sent a letter to Rahul Gandhi inviting him to meet and discuss the concerns he raised about the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly polls.
  • Gandhi made allegations of vote theft, bogus voters, and match-fixing in an opinion piece published on June 7, prompting demands for release of voter rolls and CCTV footage.
  • Reports indicated voter rolls surged by 7-11% in several constituencies, including an 8% increase in Maharashtra CM Fadnavis' seat, with some booths seeing 20-50% voter surges.
  • The ECI emphasized that elections were conducted according to law with extensive personnel involvement and stated Gandhi is welcome to write or meet to resolve issues.
  • This correspondence and invitation suggest the ECI seeks dialogue to address concerns while asserting election integrity, amid ongoing debates about electoral roll expansions and polling transparency.
