Opposition leaders from the INDIA bloc are preparing to meet with the Election Commission, expectedly on Friday, to urge the prompt release of accurate voter turnout data for each phase of the ongoing Lok Sabha elections. While initially planned for Thursday, the meeting's timing has been rescheduled. Alongside raising objections to the BJP's alleged use of religious symbols in their campaign, parties within the opposition, such as Congress, Trinamool Congress, and the Communist Party of India (Marxist), have expressed individual concerns regarding the perceived delay in disclosing voter turnout figures after the initial two phases.While the meeting was scheduled for Thursday, it was later changed to Friday. The opposition leaders will also raise the issue of alleged "use of religious symbols" by the BJP in its campaign. INDIA bloc parties, including the Congress, Trinamool Congress and the Communist Party of India (Marxist), have written to the poll panel separately so far, expressing concern over the alleged "delay" in the release of the voter turnout data in the first two phases. Amid the opposition's allegations, the poll body had asserted that booth-wise data of the "actual number of votes polled" is available to the candidates soon after the voting ends. In a statement issued last week, the EC also said it attaches "due importance" to the timely release of voter turnout figures after each phase of the poll, and said not just constituency, but booth-wise data of the actual number of votes polled is available with the candidates, which is a statutory requirement.Also Read: INDIA bloc confident of winning both LS seats in GoaOn Tuesday, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge had written to leaders of various opposition parties on the issue of alleged "discrepancies" in the voting data released by the Election Commission (EC).In his letter, Kharge urged the INDIA bloc leaders to "collectively, unitedly and unequivocally" raise their voice on the issue.
