New Delhi, Amid calls for the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday alleged that the poll panel chief was made in charge of "match-fixing" India's elections by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.
Gandhi made this charge after sharing a post from Kerala Congress which cited media reports claiming that Kumar, a former IAS officer, had told a former Kerala chief secretary to contest on a BJP ticket after his retirement.
"First, Gyanesh Kumar - then a serving IAS officer - was used to recruit for the BJP.
"Then Modi and Shah made him the umpire and put him in charge of match-fixing India's elections," Gandhi alleged in a post on X.
