Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP, Jagdambika Pal, voiced staunch support for the Election Commission, criticizing opposition parties for purportedly trying to undermine the institution without substantial proof. Pal lambasted the opposition's ongoing campaign in Bihar, accusing them of lacking faith in democracy and inciting public unrest.
