Congress leader Pawan Khera hits back at Amit Malviya over external interference claims in India’s elections. The controversy erupted after a $486 million fund allocated to the \”Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening,\” which included $21 million directed at increasing voter turnout in India. The revelation sparked fresh political debate in India, with the ruling BJP accusing foreign entities of meddling in the country’s democratic processes. However, former Chief Election Commissioner, Sanjeev Sanyal, dismissed the allegations as “baseless,” calling the claims “outlandish and unfounded.” Questions have also emerged regarding who in India may have received the $21million from USAID. The Congress has strongly denied the allegations, calling them part of a smear campaign.
