In an interview, former Chief Election Commissioner S. Y. Quraishi addressed the reported internal rift within the Election Commission of India involving CEC Gyanesh Kumar and fellow election commissioners. Quraishi stated that unilateral decision-making by a single individual within the multi-member body renders decisions invalid, remarking, "Any, all decisions taken by a single man, whosoever he may be, he may be the chairman of the Election Commission, but they're all illegal." He discussed opposition demands to nullify recent elections, noting that extensive voter deletions have compromised the electoral process. Quraishi observed that dissenting election commissioners face distinct operational pressures, citing historical instances where dissenting members were removed. Addressing public agitation and street ultimatums, he described the diminishing public trust in the commission as unprecedented. He also called for a technical and legal audit of all decisions taken by the Election Commission over the past two years.
