Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on October 12 claimed that around 200 government officials, including those from the ED, CBI and MEA, were sharing information with the Opposition. He did not disclose their identities or provide evidence publicly. At a press conference in New Delhi, Gandhi demanded Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation over alleged electoral irregularities.
