NEW DELHI: In a bid to address the concerns of political parties, the Election Commission (EC) has conducted nearly 5,000 meetings with their representatives at various levels across the country.
Over a span of 25 days, a total of 4,719 meetings were held, including 40 by state Chief Electoral Officers (CEOs), 800 by district election officers, and 3,879 by electoral registration officers. These engagements involved over 28,000 representatives of political parties nationwide, the EC confirmed on Tuesday.
The decision to initiate these meetings was made during a recent conference of CEOs in the capital. The primary objective was to resolve any pending issues by engaging with the relevant authorities at different levels.
An action report has been requested from all states to assess the progress, with any unresolved matters outside the current legal framework being escalated to the Election Commission for further review.
