Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y.S. Sharmila on Friday led an all-party meeting at Andhra Ratna Bhavan, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar and alleging that the Election Commission of India (ECI) was functioning under the influence of the BJP-led Union government.

Addressing the meeting, Ms. Sharmila alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had undermined democracy by turning the ECI into a puppet. She claimed that votes were being deleted on a large scale across the country and accused the commission of making illegal changes to Forms 6 and 7.
