Parliament Showdown: BJP's Nishikant Dubey Counters Rahul Gandhi's 'System Capture' Charge on EC

In this India Today debate, host Gaurav Sawant discusses the heated Parliament exchange regarding the Election Commission's independence. Congress National Spokesperson Dr. Shama Mohamed defends Rahul Gandhi’s ‘system capture’ allegations, citing inaction on Model Code of Conduct violations during recent elections. She questions the removal of the Chief Justice of India from the selection panel. In response, BJP National Spokesperson R.P. Singh and MP Nishikant Dubey (via footage) counter by listing former CECs like M.S. Gill and T.N. Seshan, who they claim had Congress affiliations. Senior Journalist Neerja Chowdhury and Political Strategist Amitabh Tiwari analyze the political implications, with Tiwari noting that while the allegations are serious, the public may not yet believe elections are rigged.
