India, Aug. 18 -- The INDIA alliance is planning to move an impeachment motion against the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The decision comes days after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi made allegations of voter fraud during the recent elections.

Gandhi has alleged "vote chori (vote theft)" in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Haryana, accusing the poll panel of voter data manipulation. On August 7, he claimed there were 100,250 "stolen" votes in Bangalore Central's Mahadevapura assembly segment that helped the BJP win the 2024 Lok Sabha seat, accusing the commission of "colluding" with the ruling party.
