As the Karnataka elections near, the Congress has written to the Election Commission of India demanding the removal of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Chief Commissioner Tushar


Giri Nath, alleging misconduct in election duties. The complaint, filed under Section 32 of the Citizens' Representative Act 1950, accuses Tushar of failing to perform his duties and


committing mistakes in the appointment of booth-level officers and allocation of election work to a private organisation named Chilume. It further alleged that Tushar allowed the collection


of personal information of voters, which is a violation of election laws.
