Pune, October 13 - Former Union Minister Prithviraj Chavan of the Congress party contends that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar will neither resign nor be dismissed, as doing so would serve as a confession of electoral fraud. Chavan labeled the Opposition's protest activities as unprecedented, asserting that his party views these demonstrations as an exercise of fundamental rights. He cautioned that suppressing these rights by unlawfully detaining protesters is unjust.
Chavan addressed a rally in Pune for candidates of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), indicating confidence in their victory in the upcoming legislative council elections. He emphasized the importance of corruption-free and employment-focused governance, warning that a free and fair election would result in the Opposition's electoral success.
