Opposition Parties Stage Mock Impeachment of Election Commission Chief

Opposition parties recently staged a mock impeachment of the chief of the Election Commission in a symbolic demonstration of their grievances against the electoral process. The event, organized by several major opposition groups, involved a staged parliamentary procedure in which the chief was formally accused of misconduct. While the proceedings were purely ceremonial, they highlighted the parties’ concerns over alleged irregularities in the conduct of elections. The mock impeachment was met with criticism from the ruling party, which dismissed it as a political stunt. The opposition leaders used the occasion to call for reforms in the Election Commission’s functioning and greater transparency.
