March 17, 2025

Opposition parties have intensified their demand for a debate on the EPIC (the Elector Photo Identity Cards) and voter roll in the Budget session of Parliament next week, amid allegations of duplication of the ID numbers, manipulations in the voter list and related issues over the past few weeks.

NEW DELHI:

A senior Trinamool Congress leader said on Saturday that "nine opposition parties have conveyed their demand to NDA ministers that the Opposition is ready to discuss the issue under any rule".

The demand for a debate assumes importance as chief election commissioner Gyanesh Kumar on Saturday convened a meeting with the Union home secretary Govind Mohan, legislative department secretary Rajiv Mani and UIDAI CEO Bhuvnesh Kumar on March 18, to discuss linking of EPIC with Aadhaar.
