The INDIA bloc has begun its controversial 'public impeachment' of the Chief Election Commissioner after rain forced a postponement a day earlier. With around 20 Opposition parties expected to participate, the bloc plans to level charges ranging from alleged voter deletions and 'vote chori' to non-transparent SIR decisions. While the Opposition says it is holding the poll panel accountable, the BJP has dismissed the exercise as a political stunt aimed at undermining democratic institutions.
