EC slams voter fraud allegations, says Opposition missed chance to raise objections.

The Election Commission of India (ECI) has strongly rejected recent claims of voter fraud, clarifying that the country’s electoral process is transparent and robust. In its official statement, the EC emphasized that all political parties, including the Opposition, were given sufficient opportunities to raise objections during the election process. However, according to the Commission, the Opposition failed to act within the prescribed time and procedures, and raising allegations now undermines the credibility of the democratic process.

The Commission also pointed out that mechanisms such as candidate scrutiny, voter list verification, and objection procedures are already in place to ensure free and fair elections. It stressed that casting doubts after results have been declared not only damages public trust but also disregards the institutions designed to safeguard democracy.

The EC further stated that it remains open to constructive feedback and reforms but warned against spreading misinformation that could harm the electoral system’s reputation. Observers note that this clash between the EC and Opposition could intensify political debates, particularly as the next phases of elections draw clo
