NEW DELHI: Election Commission told SC on Thursday that NGO Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) and Yogendra Yadav had filed petitions with “ulterior and mala fide motives” to disrupt SIR in Bihar and create a narrative suiting the electoral interests of political parties, reports Dhananjay Mahapatra.
EC made the charge on a day the court virtually ruled out intervention in the electoral rolls prepared after SIR.
Appearing for EC, senior advocate Rakesh Dwivedi told a bench of justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi that every time the court asked Yadav and ADR to provide instances of irregularities, they made wrong and misleading oral submissions to “take the court for a ride” and furnished factually wrong instances.
