Rajiv Kumar, the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) of India, is set to resign, with a new CEC to be appointed soon, according to sources. This development follows the unexpected resignation of Election Commissioner Arun Goel in March 2024, leaving the Election Commission with a single member. The Supreme Court has previously cautioned against such a scenario, emphasizing the importance of a multi-member commission to ensure balanced decision-making.
