The 2024 Lok Sabha elections were held under Kumar's supervision. He demitted office in February this year.

People close to Kumar said the former CEC is very much in India and has not settled in Malta.

Kumar has been in the limelight after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged "vote theft" in Karnataka, Maharashtra and Haryana during polls, which took place when the former headed the Election Commission.
