India Politics Highlights | 'Should be called 'BJP Protection Bill': Uddhav slams Maha security billHello readers, the Supreme Court on Thursday allowed the EC to continue with its special scrutiny of the electoral roll in Bihar, calling it a 'constitutional mandate'. It also asked the poll panel to consider Aadhaar, voter-ID and ration cards as valid documents for the identification of voters during the exercise. Reacting to the development, the BJP said the SC's ruling is a 'setback' to the opposition parties that are protesting against the exercise. The opposition parties, on the other hand, see it as a 'relief for democracy' and is a 'significant advance' in the case. We will be tracking this and more today.

On Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann's remark on PM Modi's foreign visit, BJP leader Shahnawaz Hussain said, "Bhagwant Mann is a comedian, a joker, and he continues to make statements like one. He is now a Chief Minister, he should at least maintain some dignity. His party made him the Chief Minister, and the Aam Aadmi Party has betrayed both Punjab and the country. Just listen to the kind of language he is using. As a Chief Minister, he's questioning how the Prime Minister received an award. Then he claims that no one understood 'Operation Sindoor.' Such an insult to the nation will not be tolerated. Bhagwant Mann needs to watch his words."

India Politics LIVE | We will not let EC, BJP do 'chori' of Bihar elections: Rahul in Odisha

"I was in Bihar yesterday. Just like 'chunav chori' was done in Maharashtra, a similar attempt is being made in Bihar. For 'chunav chori', EC has hatched a new conspiracy. EC is working as a BJP wing, it is not doing its own job. In Maharashtra, between Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections, 1 crore new voters were added. Nobody knows who were these voters and where did they come from. We told EC several times to provide us with the voter list and videography. But EC does not provide us with the same. They are going to do the same 'chori' in Bihar, that was done in Maharashtra. I went to Bihar yesterday and with I.N.D.I.A. alliance leaders, I said that we will not let EC and BJP do a 'chori' of Bihar elections": Rahul Gandhi
