After damning reports on CEC, Tejashwi Yadav seeks re-election in Bihar and West Bengal

Bihar Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav on Wednesday (September 23, 2026) said a report regarding the Election Commission’s functioning has revealed how the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) intends to dismantle the Constitution and democracy, and how Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah are destroying the democratic system.

Addressing the media at his official residence in Patna, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) national working president asserted that serious questions have arisen from the report, and both Election Commissioners have lodged complaints regarding the Chief Election Commissioner’s modus operandi.

“Why is there silence over the questions raised by the two Election Commissioners about the Chief Election Commissioner of India (ECI) Gyanesh Kumar? He should come forward and answer. The press release issued by the ECI was drafted at the behest of Amit Shah,” Mr. Yadav alleged.
