If someone is blatantly wrong, biased, and prejudiced - ESPECIALLY a Constitutional Authority like the Election Commission - THEY MUST BE CHALLENGED. Being a Constitutional Authority is no license to run haywire and substitute your own personal political bias or whim for Election Law, as the Election Commission is now doing. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I say the Election Commission of India as it exists today is INCOMPETENT (as absurdly long and drawn-out 9 phase, 40 days election AND the Mumbai and Pune electoral rolls fiasco showed); the EC is in addition, biased in favor of one party (the Congress and so-called "seculars") while also biased AGAINST the NDA, BJP, and Modi personally. What else explains the strict action being taken against Giriraj, Amit Shah, Togadia, and Ramdev (the last three of whom are not even political candidates!), while no action is forthcoming on the vitriol and communal hatred from Muslim candidates like Shazia Ilmi, Azam Khan, Imran Masood, and Abu Azmi yesterday? Why the soft treatment by the EC towards Mamata, Mayawati, Lalu, Beni, Digvijay, and others who all use all manner of unnacceptable and vile abuses like "Fascist", "Butcher", "Genocide", "Hitler", "Animal", "Dog" etc. against Modi personally? - THE ELECTION COMMISSION AS IT STANDS NOW SHOULD BE DISMANTLED AFTER POLLS UNDER A NEW GOVERNMENT AND BE STRIPPED OF ALL POWERS, AND CRIMINAL CASES OF NEGLIGENCE AND DERELICTION OF DUTY SHOULD BE FILED AGAINST THE ELECTION COMMISSIONERS.
