Congress Era CECs: How Independent Were They? And Why RaGa’s “Vote Chori” Pitch?

Описание: How impartial were India’s Chief Election Commissioners during the long Congress-dominant decades—and what does history tell us about institutional independence vs political pressure?

In this episode, we:

Map the Congress-era CEC timeline starting from Sukumar Sen (1950–1958), who ran India’s first general elections.
Explain why appointment rules matter, and how the Supreme Court’s Anoop Baranwal (2023) framework and the 2023 Act changed the selection committee—sparking ongoing challenges in court.
Revisit a major “perception of bias” flashpoint from the UPA era: the Navin Chawla controversy and the clash within the Election Commission itself.

Decode Rahul Gandhi’s escalating “vote chori” pitch amid the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) fight—and what both sides claim SIR is actually doing.

Goal: separate verifiable process issues (law, selection design, transparency, roll revision safeguards) from headline politics.
