Opposition submits fresh notice seeking CEC Gyanesh Kumar’s removal

As part of the fresh charges, the opposition has accused Kumar of “continued partisan asymmetry in enforcement of model code of conduct”, wherein it is alleged that EC failed to act on complaints against PM Narendra Modi’s address to the nation on April 18 on the defeated Constitution amendment bill-related to women’s reservation amid assembly polls. CEC “has issued no show-cause notice, no advisory, and no public response” to any of the complaints made regarding this, it said.
