'All misconceptions put to rest': NDA allies welcome EC press note amid SIR row

All doubts have been dispelled as BJP allies have welcomed the Election Commission of India's (ECI) statement clarifying there is no rift between the Chief Election Commissioner and the other two Election Commissioners over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. The ECI's recent decisions, including the SIR for various States and Union Territories, have received unanimous approval from the Commission.

The ECI's statement reassured the public and bolstered trust in the democratic process. NDA leaders, including Chirag Paswan, N Chandrababu Naidu, and Nitin Nabin, expressed their satisfaction with the ECI's clarification, emphasizing the importance of respecting constitutional institutions and maintaining public confidence in India's democracy.

Opposition parties, however, continue to question the actions of the NDA and the INDIA bloc, with some urging a pause in the SIR process and accusing the BJP of trying to undermine the country's democratic framework.
