Chandragiri repolling: CM Naidu to meet EC in Delhi today

Date:

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu will meet the officials of Election Commission (EC) in New Delhi at 4.30 pm on Friday.

Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) had on Thursday ‘strongly opposed’ the poll watchdog’s decision to hold re-polling at five booths under Chandragiri and Chittoor parliamentary constituencies and termed it as ‘partial one-sided and undemocratic’.

“I am writing this letter to strongly oppose the partial one-sided and undemocratic motivated actions of the EC. The decision to conduct repolling in five polling stations under 166-Chandragiri and 25-Chittoor parliamentary constituencies,” the TDP chief Naidu said in the letter on Thursday.

The poll body had on Wednesday (May 15) declared the poll held on April 11 in these five stations as void and ordered that a re-polling be conducted from 7 am to 6 pm on May 19.

The same day, Naidu wrote on Twitter, “It’s high time that the ECI acts on the complaints made by opposition parties to restore its credibility and fulfill its constitutional mandate of conducting free and fair elections.”

Meanwhile, Naidu might also meet Congress president Rahul Gandhi, Farooq Abdullah and Sharad Yadav, today.
