Lok Sabha elections 2024: The Parliament passed the Chief Election Commissioner and Other Election Commissioners (Appointment, Conditions of Service and Term of Office) Bill, 2023 last December
Prime Minister Narendra Modi denied the allegations by the Opposition that there is a lack of level playing field in the Lok Sabha elections and said that laws regarding the institutions were formed before his tenure while adding that the Opposition is only trying to find an excuse for their impending defeat.
Confuting the claims of the misuse of the Enforcement Directorate, PM Modi highlighted that only 3 per cent of cases are against political people and a much higher amount of cash has been seized by the agency in the last 10 years as compared to before.
In an exclusive interview with ANI, PM Modi said, "None of the law regarding this was made by my government. Whether it is ED, CBI or Election Commission."
