The Election Commission has changed electoral rules to exclude CCTV footage of polling booths from the list of ‘documents’ accessible to the public. Previously, Section 93(2) of the Conduct of Election Rules allowed all other papers relating to the election to be inspected with court approval.
Election Commission's move triggered an instant criticism from the Congress party that accused the poll body and the Modi-led government of undermining transparency and electoral integrity. Sanjay Leela Bhansali To Nag Ashwin: Top 6 Filmmaker Who Shined In Creating Multi-Cast Projects In 2024
"If there was ever a vindication of our assertions regarding the rapidly eroding integrity of the electoral process managed by the Election Commission of India in recent times, this is it," Ramesh wrote on X. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh stressed the importance of transparency in elections, stating,"Transparency and openness are key in exposing and eliminating corruption and unethical practices, and information restores confidence in the process."
Backing the criticism, Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said,"Sunlight is the best disinfectant. If something is kept in the dark, it’s decaying slowly but surely," a part of his post on X read. The Election Commission of India has defended its decision to limit access to poll booth CCTV footage, citing voter privacy and safety concerns. Officials from the ECI and the Law Ministry said the amendment was triggered by a recent Punjab and Haryana High Court order.
