A committee headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to select the new Chief Information Commissioner, one vigilance commissioner and eight information commissioners, met in New Delhi on Wednesday but Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi rejected the shortlisted candidates and submitted a dissent note, said people aware of the matter.

The 90-minute-long meeting was attended by Modi, home minister Amit Shah and Gandhi.

Functionaries aware of the details said Gandhi raised the exclusion of Dalit, backward, tribal and minority communities — who he said comprised 90% of Indian population -- from top bureaucratic posts. In the run up to the 2024 elections, Gandhi had repeatedly raised this issue and alleged that these communities were kept out of the decision-making process.
