The Nashik City (District) Congress Committee has submitted a memorandum to the District Collector, demanding the dismissal and arrest of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The Congress alleges that he has been involved in the manipulation of voter lists through the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. The party claims that the Election Commission, responsible for conducting free and fair elections, has been biased towards the ruling party in recent years.
They allege that large numbers of voters are being removed from electoral rolls under the SIR process and cite reports of dissent from Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi against Gyanesh Kumar's decisions. The Congress also claims that several decisions were taken without informing other commissioners and cites alleged irregularities in voter lists, including the deletion of millions of names in various states and the addition of allegedly bogus voters ahead of the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections.
The memorandum was signed by Nashik City Congress President Nilesh (Bablu) Arjun Khaire and other office-bearers of the District Congress Committee.
