Who will guarantee the fairness of the electoral system?
The country is standing on the threshold of lok sabha elections. In such a situation, whose responsibility is it to reassure the citizens of the country on the questions arising regarding election credibility? Apart from being the prime minister of the country, as well as being a senior leader of the largest ruling party BJP, narendra modi should make every effort to maintain the trust of the common citizens in the entire electoral system and political parties. In this direction, the prime minister is most accountable due to the fact that the government is omnipotent in practice.
