Pune, October 3 (Daily Kiran) : Maharashtra Congress President Harshvardhan Sapkal has demanded the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, emphasizing the need for transparency and fairness in the electoral process. He stated that elections in the country must be conducted freely and fairly, warning that any form of electoral malpractice is a serious issue.
Sapkal highlighted the necessity of investigating correspondence from two election commissioners that revealed concerning information.

Furthermore, Sapkal criticized the Maharashtra government for its handling of ongoing examination and paper leak issues. He noted the frequent incidents of paper leaks during examinations, labeling it a major fraud. Despite the revelations, he accused the Maharashtra government of being unwilling to implement necessary reforms.

He expressed concerns that the MPSC could potentially benefit select individuals in the future, hinting at possible corruption. The Congress party is committed to preventing such outcomes.
Sapkal further remarked that awareness among youth regarding paper leak issues and student-related problems has increased. Following Rahul Gandhi’s consistent emphasis on these matters, a new consciousness is emerging among young voters. He assured that the Congress party stands in solidarity with local organizations to support these issues.
