Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge welcomes the Supreme Court's ruling, terming the Electoral Bonds a 'Black Money Conversion Scheme' by the Modi government. The party, critical of the opaque system since its inception, reiterated its promise in the 2019 manifesto to abolish it. Kharge notes the significant BJP funding under this scheme and urges the government to respect the court's decision for a more transparent democracy. The CPI(M) lauds the judgment, emphasizing the scrapping of a scheme designed for anonymous corporate donations to the ruling party. NCP, led by Sharad Pawar, also supports the decision, advocating transparency in political contributions.
