Actions Speak Louder Than Words: EC Gives Strong Reply To Congs Intentional Delay Allegation For Gujarat Polls Schedule

While announcing the dates for the upcoming Assembly polls in Gujarat, Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar on Thursday responded to the criticism of the Congress on the Election Commission of India (ECI) for “intentionally delaying” the announcement of poll dates for Gujarat elections. In response to the recent jibe of the Congress party on the ECI, Kumar said, “Action and outcome actually speak louder than words. No matter how much I try to make you understand, what's important are the actions and our correct results. Results have shown that those who are critical got surprising results. EC has a proud legacy. These are attempts to create negative environment before elections.”
