Lok Sabha Elections 2024: ECI says delay in releasing voting data-mismanagement-Kharge's allegations baseless

All the parties are putting a lot of emphasis on the Lok Sabha elections. In that, the Election Commission had termed the allegation of delay in releasing the voting data and maladministration as baseless. Responding to the Congress President's allegations, the Election Commission said that this is a deliberate attempt to spread confusion.

According to reports, the Election Commission of India has denied allegations of misconduct and delays in releasing polling data. The Election Commission said Mallikarjun Kharge's allegations are baseless, devoid of all facts and a 'deliberate attempt to bias and mislead'.

Along with this, the Election Commission also reprimanded Mallikarjun Kharge for disrupting the Lok Sabha elections. The Election Commission said that the allegations of making voting related data public are baseless. This creates confusion in conducting fair and free elections. The commission also said that such statements could have a negative impact on voter participation. This may discourage large electoral systems in the states.

In fact, Mallikarjun Kharge had alleged that there was excessive delay in releasing the voting percentage figures and discrepancies were found in the figures. He said this raises serious doubts on the free and fair nature of the elections.
