A detailed discussion on the opposition's growing lack of trust in the Election Commission of India focuses on allegations of voter list manipulation and demands for a return to paper ballots. The debate covers the recent special intensive revision of electoral rolls, with specific concerns raised about large-scale voter deletions in states like West Bengal and Bihar. The controversy over the appointment process of election commissioners following legislative changes is also highlighted.
Furthermore, the conversation explores the credibility of electronic voting machines versus paper ballots, with arguments presented for improving the VVPAT system rather than reverting to older voting methods. The role of the Supreme Court in adjudicating these electoral disputes and the alleged misuse of central investigation agencies during elections are examined. The potential implications of a future election boycott by opposition parties are also evaluated as part of the broader discourse on strengthening democratic institutions and ensuring free and fair electoral processes.
