Andhra Pradesh Congress party decides to contest all seats in local body elections
The party’s PAC also decides to constitute a three-member committee to finalise possible alliances with the INDIA bloc, like-minded parties and organisations opposed to the BJP and NDA
The Congress has expressed concern over the deletion of voters in some constituencies of Bihar after the completion of the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, alleging that the number of deleted voters exceeded the victory margin of the last Assembly election. In a post on X, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh claimed that the Election Commission of India (ECI) was acting as a "puppet" of the ruling party and was conducting the SIR with the purpose of providing political advantage to the BJP and its allies.
Ramesh highlighted instances of irregularities, such as 247 people found in a single house in Jamui, and multiple names appearing on the same booth, questioning the ECI's impartiality and adherence to Supreme Court orders.
