The Election Commission (EC) is scheduled to hold a press conference on Sunday, August 17th, amidst accusations of vote theft leveled by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and ongoing protests from opposition parties regarding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. The press conference will take place at 3 PM in the National Media Center in Delhi. This information was provided by the EC’s Media Director General. This press conference marks the first for the Election Commission following the commencement of the Special Intensive Revision process in Bihar. While the specific subject of the press conference has not been declared, officials have indicated that it will address the accusations directed towards the Election Commission. It is unusual for the Election Commission to arrange a formal press conference on any topic other than the announcement of election schedules.
