00:01Delhi police detained protesters on Friday, including two Am Admi Party politicians, who were demanding the resignation of Chief Election
00:11Commissioner Ganesh Kumar.
00:13AAP leaders Saurabh Bharadwaj and Sanjeev Jha were taken away from the protest site.
00:19Pressure on Kumar has intensified after it was reported last month that his two deputies had formally raised concerns at
00:27least 14 times over the past 10 months about voter list revisions, registration procedures, and the Commission's digital systems.
00:36The Election Commission has said differing views are normal in internal deliberations.
00:41The controversy centers on a nationwide voter verification exercise launched last year.
00:47Critics say it has led to millions of eligible voters being removed from electoral rolls, while the Commission maintains the
00:55exercise is intended to weed out duplicate, deceased, or ineligible voters.
