The Arunachal Pradesh Congress has leveled serious allegations against the ruling BJP, raising concerns over electoral integrity in the upcoming December elections. They claim widespread malpractices, including cash distribution and voter intimidation, jeopardizing the democratic process.
In a memorandum to the State Election Commission, the Congress detailed the alleged misuse of government machinery and resources, asserting that the forthcoming polls might become historically compromised. The opposition party highlights a transformation from grassroots democracy to unethical electoral contests, dominated by financial manipulation.
Countering these accusations, the BJP dismissed the claims as unfounded. Spokesperson Mutchu Mithi emphasized adherence to electoral procedures, attributing Congress's assertions to political frustration. As the election date approaches, the Congress has urged the SEC to investigate and address these concerns promptly.
