Pointing out that the role of Chief Justice of India in the three-member committee for selecting the Chief Election Commissioner and Election Commissioners are crucial, the chief minister claimed the she and her party strongly oppose replacing the CJI with a member of the Union cabinet.
She also said that this move reveals BJP’s discomfort fearing that their vote manipulation process could suffer.
