Transforming the Election Commission into an executive instrument destroys institutional neutrality and erodes public trust in the voting system.
The contrast between India’s global democratic rhetoric and its domestic suppression of voting rights exposes a deep commitment to electoral manipulation.
Stripping citizens of their voting rights alters election outcomes in key districts to favor the ruling administration.
