New Delhi — Congress MP Pawan Khera has raised serious concerns over the authenticity and transparency of a letter reportedly sent by the Election Commission of India (ECI) in response to Rahul Gandhi’s remarks about alleged "match-fixing" in recent elections.
Reacting to the controversy triggered by Gandhi’s article and the purported response from the ECI, Khera said, “The article which Rahul Gandhi wrote was published with his name. We don’t know whether the Election Commission of India has written that letter or not.”
He questioned the absence of a signature or name on the letter, implying that it could have originated from political offices rather than the constitutional body itself. “It can be from Hiren Joshi or the PMO, because the letter has no name on it. We don’t know who has sent it,” Khera asserted.
“The credibility of any institution lies in its transparency. An institute which can’t put its signature on the letter — how can we trust its authenticity?” he asked.
