What are the court’s observations regarding the appointment of Election commissioners?<\/h5>\n

The court mentioned that the whole number of appointments made after 2015 had taken a maximum of two to three days.<\/p>\n

The court said the government has reduced the scope of candidates to just bureaucrats and moreover ensured that neither the CEC nor the ECs serve their full term.<\/p>\n

The law says CEC and ECs should separately have six years terms. But the court observed that the government is promoting ECs to CECs and ensuring that both don\u2019t have a full term of six years, which is contrary to the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
