00:00As we speak, the political war continues over what the media report states because
00:04we are now getting reports of the Youth Congress protesting against Chief Election Commissioner
00:08Janesh. Now Janesh Kumar, the Youth Congress is demanding the resignation of the CEC and
00:14therefore a political war continues over what's happening in respect in the aftermath of the
00:20election commission of the media report that apparently highlighted divisions within the
00:26election commission. Let me go across to my colleague Anmol Bali is joining us with live.
00:29Anmol, take us through what are you seeing around here at this point.
00:36After the reports that election commissioners have raised objection at CEC for centralization
00:42of election commission's action in special intensive revision, Indian Youth Congress, the
00:46Youth Wing of the Congress party has called up protests against Janesh Kumar, CEC and currently
00:51here in the visuals, I'll show you that how IYC workers have gathered in large numbers outside
00:57their headquarters and they're holding cards in their hand. They're demanding resignation.
01:01I'll talk with Akshay Lagra, IYC Delhi president. What are your main demands?
01:05We demand immediate resignation of Mr. Janesh Kumar because the election commission of
01:10India is totally compromised. Mr. Sandhu and Mr. Joshi, who are also part of the election commission,
01:16they have clearly said that in 11 months, 14 times that the demand was not accepted by Janesh
01:23Kumar. The software used by the election commission of India is not trustworthy. Also, the form number
01:306 which is meant for addition and dilatation of water has been completely misused for past
01:36so many months. And at present, we demand resignation of Janesh Kumar, he should resign immediately.
01:41Here in the visual, I show you that IYC workers are holding placards in their hand, vote
01:46chori prison hai, vote chori desh droha, time hai ga, sabka hesab ho ga. And clearly, you see the real
01:52orders came from here. They're also accusing the BJP government that orders of centralization of powers
01:58in election commission came from the top brass of the BJP means PM Modi, NHM, and they're holding
02:04placards in their hand. But on the other hand, heavy deployment of paramilitary forces and Delhi
02:08police has been done here to stop youth Congress workers to march from here towards the Rai Sina road.
02:14But clearly, in the visual, you can see that politics has now started escalating on this issue
02:19where we are seeing that opposition leaders from Congress to Armadi Party to Samajwadi Party
02:24are now questioning the BJP and election commission on this issue.
02:29All right, Anwal. Thanks a lot for joining us. We will be, of course, focusing on the big political
02:33story of the day throughout the rest of our prime time.
