Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has alleged that the Election Commission does not seem to be acting fairly when it is supposed to be transparent, a day after the Uttar Pradesh police against him for allegedly flouting COVID-19 norms while campaigning for the Assembly polls.
“The Election Commission should keep its role transparent. The agency is not seen to be acting fairly at the beginning itself, then what will happen later,” said Mr. Baghel in a video statement shared on his Twitter handle over the FIR registered against him.
A U.P. police spokesperson had said that the FIR was lodged against the Chhattisgarh Chief Minister and others for violating COVID-19 rules set by the Election Commission when they were in the Sector 113 police station area in Noida.
