Press Statement

 

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:

 

The EC Should Clear the Apprehensions

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) urges the
Election Commission of India (ECI) to take urgent remedial measures to
restore public confidence in the electoral process by addressing the various
concerns raised by political parties and others.

In recent times, serious questions have been raised about the fairness of
elections - ranging from irregularities in the preparation of electoral
rolls, particularly the SIR process in Bihar, to malpractices witnessed in
the state elections of Maharashtra and Karnataka - which appear to favour
the ruling party.

It is the duty and responsibility of the ECI to conduct thorough inquiries
into the issues raised by the opposition, without functioning as a
quarrelsome adjunct of the ruling party, and to demonstrate to the people
that it is a transparent and impartial constitutional body.
