Election Commissioners Vivek Joshi and Sukhbir Sandhu have reportedly disagreed with Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar on multiple occasions. Reports indicate they have lodged formal objections at least 14 times in the past 10 months, with some decisions made without their knowledge. The opposition claims Kumar is acting arbitrarily, while the ruling party suggests such disagreements are normal in a vibrant democracy. The Election Commission stated all decisions are constitutional.
