In a formal communication to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his allegations of rigging in the 2024 Maharashtra polls, the Election Commission (EC) has said that all electoral processes are conducted strictly as per laws passed by Parliament and rules.

The poll panel emphasized that the entire poll exercise involves thousands of personnel, including booth-level agents appointed by political parties.

In a letter emailed to Rahul Gandhi on June 12 in response to his article in a leading daily alleging "match-fixing" in the Maharashtra polls, the EC said the entire election process is conducted in a decentralized manner at the assembly constituency level. It said the process involved more than 1,00,186 booth-level officers (BLOs), 288 electoral registration officers (EROs), 139 general observers, 41 police observers, 71 expenditure observers and 288 returning officers (ROs) appointed by the EC, according to officials.
