Any impeachment motion against CEC will be examined under rules: Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla
- On Friday, the INDIA bloc postponed its 'public impeachment' of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar to tomorrow, citing heavy rains in New Delhi that rendered the lawns at Mallikarjun Kharge's residence muddy.
- Opposition parties organized this symbolic protest against Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, with leaders finalizing plans during a Thursday meeting.
- Former Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar was scheduled to chair proceedings, with Kharge moving the 'motion' and Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi delivering concluding remarks; one representative from each party was expected to speak.
- Attendees at the planning meeting included Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Jairam Ramesh, and Venugopal, alongside TMC's Derek, Samajwadi Party's Harendra Malik, JMM's Mahua Maji, and CPI's John Brittas.
- The rescheduled event will proceed tomorrow at 10 Rajaji Marg, as the bloc maintains pressure on the commission's leadership despite the weather delay.
