Tharoor said- questions are serious, answers should be found
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who was involved in March, said- This issue is very straightforward for me. Rahul Gandhi has raised some serious questions, which should be answered. The Election Commission not only has the responsibility towards the country, but it also has its own responsibility that there is no doubt about the credibility of our elections in the minds of the people. Elections matter to the whole country. Our democracy is so precious that it cannot be endangered by doubt that there is no duplicate voting, whether there is many addresses, or there is no fake vote. If there is any doubt in the minds of the people, then it should be resolved. Answers to these questions may be available, but these answers should be reliable. My only request is that the Election Commission should solve these questions.
