BJP president JP Nadda alleged that the Congress and Samajwadi Party are attempting to undermine the Election Commission’s authority, calling their actions anti‑democratic.
BJP president JP Nadda publicly charged the Indian National Congress and the Samajwadi Party with actions that he says erode the Election Commission’s autonomy. In a statement released on Monday, Nadda asserted that both parties were engaging in tactics that could compromise the impartiality of the electoral process.
He warned that such behavior threatens the credibility of India’s democratic institutions and called for strict enforcement of the commission’s guidelines. Nadda urged the Election Commission to take swift action against any attempts to influence its functioning.
The remarks come ahead of the upcoming state assembly elections, where the BJP, Congress and SP are all fielding candidates. No immediate response was recorded from the Congress or the Samajwadi Party at the time of reporting.
