In an exclusive interview, former Chief Election Commissioner O.P. Rawat analyzes the Election Commission’s recent press conference on allegations of voter fraud and the SIR in Bihar. Rawat states that the EC’s clarifications were "not really adequate enough to diffuse the situation." He suggests the commission lost the initiative by not immediately investigating claims from all political parties. The former CEC also questions the EC’s explanation for ‘house number zero’ on electoral rolls, stating it is not a national norm and he does not recall it happening in the past. Further, he dismisses privacy as a concern for withholding CCTV footage from polling stations and notes the lack of data provided on alleged foreign illegal immigrants in Bihar’s electoral rolls, a point the EC had initially raised. #electioncommission #oprawat #voterfraud #itwebvideos #eci #bihar #electoralrolls #indianpolitics #democracy #elections #cctv #indiatoday
