The Election Commission (EC) publicly addressed allegations made by Rahul Gandhi regarding the procedural requirements of Form 6, the document used for new voter enrollment. Gandhi had previously cited an earlier EC statement to support his claims about the declaration process associated with the form. In response, the poll body utilized its official social media presence on X to clarify its position and address the Leader of Opposition's interpretation of the rules.

While the EC’s statement aims to provide a definitive account of the regulatory requirements, the exchange highlights a growing tension between the opposition and the election regulator regarding administrative transparency. The EC maintains that its previous communications were clear, whereas Gandhi’s critique suggests a disagreement over how these declarations are implemented or communicated to the public. Because the EC’s response was limited to a social media post, specific details regarding the exact nature of the 'allegations' remain sparse in the current reporting. The core of the disagreement appears to be a technical dispute over the legal weight and intent of the declaration attached to the voter registration form, though neither party has yet provided a comprehensive breakdown of the specific clause in question.
