Report: two Commissioners objected on record 14 times in 10 months

The Indian Express reported that Election Commissioners Sandhu and Joshi formally objected at least 14 times over ten months to decisions and orders they said were taken without their knowledge, on new-voter registration, deletions and restorations, West Bengal appeals and custody of the roll database, copying CEC Gyanesh Kumar. The Commission and both Commissioners did not respond to questions sent on 21 September.

Not all 14 objections are itemised in the published reports; the rule-related ones are recorded in this file with their own entries.
