Seeks debate on ‘electoral reforms’ to end logjam

Oppn suggests ‘middle path’ in Parliament

THE Opposition has proposed allowing a discussion on “electoral reforms” as a "middle path" to end the deadlock in Parliament over the demand for a debate on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar, according to sources within the opposition parties.

The government has not yet responded to the proposal, they said on Wednesday.

However, government sources indicated that the ruling side is unlikely to accede to any such debate. Congress general secretary (Communications) Jairam Ramesh cited a post by the party's deputy leader in the Lok Sabha, Gaurav Gogoi, which claimed that Parliament has a long history of discussing electoral reforms and the functioning of the Election Commission
