All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary K.C. Venugopal, MP, has termed former Chief Secretary Jiji Thomson’s disclosure that the present Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar had in 2016 urged him, while he was still serving as an IAS officer in the Keralam cadre, to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as “extremely serious.”
He said that this revelation by Mr. Thomson clearly exposes Mr. Kumar as the operative who had taken upon himself the task of installing Narendra Modi and Amit Shah in power.
