Bihar assembly elections 2020 – Counting will take time

The results of Bihar assembly elections are coming. Counting of votes is going on and the figures are constantly fluctuating. In the early trends in Bihar, the Bihar Grand Alliance was seen gaining, but the NDA gained momentum as soon as the counting of votes began in the second to third hour.

The trends are becoming clear, but it is believed that it will take a long time for the results to be clear. The big reason behind this is the covid-19 protocol. Actually, this time due to covid, more number of polling booths were kept for voting in Bihar elections. Only 1,000 voters were allowed to vote in each polling booth, due to which the number of EVMs also increased. According to the information, 63 percent more EVMs have been used in these elections.

This time the number of voters at each polling station was fixed from 1,000 to 1,500, so as to ensure social distance. For this, the number of polling stations had to increase. Bihar’s Deputy Election Commissioner Bihar Chandra Bhushan Kumar said, “We hope that according to the process, the counting of votes will be finished tonight.”

He said that in the 2015 assembly elections, the counting of votes was done at 38 places, but this time, counting is being done at 55 places to ensure social distance. This time the number of tables in each hall has been reduced from 14 to seven. Bhushan said that counting of votes will be held in different constituencies in 19 to 51 rounds.

Deputy Election Commissioner Sudeep Jain, in charge of EVMs, while answering some questions regarding the reliability of EVMs, said that there can be no “tampering” of the machine and the Supreme Court has several times justified the use of this device.

How many houses will you break? How many throats will you choke, how many people’s hair will your pull and how many voices will you silence? Sonia Sena, how many mouths will you gag? These voices will keep growing. Before us, so many martyrs’ throats were slit, they were hanged for their right to free speech. No matter, you will silence, many others will rise.”

Punjab govt withdraws general consent to CBI to probe in the state

After Maharashtra, Punjab has also announced to withdraw its general consent to the Central Bureau Investigation(CBI) to probe across the geographical boundaries of the state.

In view of revocation of all previous general consents issued earlier, prior consent of the government of Punjab shall be required, hereinafter, on a case-to-case basis for investigation of any offence or class of offences under Section 3 of the aforesaid Act, by the Delhi Special Police Establishment,” reads Punjab government’s notification published in the state government gazette on November 8.

The move by the governement led by Captain Amarinder Singh means that the CBI will now have to seek permission from the state government to investigate cases in the state.

Jharkhand, Rajasthan, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Kerala and Chhattisgarh are other states that have withdrawn the general consent accorded to the CBI to exercise its powers under the Delhi Special Police Establishment (DPSE) Act.

“The general consent granted to the CBI under Section 6 of the DPSE Act has been revoked. If the CBI has to investigate any offence or class of offences related to the state, prior consent of the Punjab government will be required on a case-to-case basis,” Hindustan Times quoted a senior officer familiar with the matter.

While states can deny general consent to CBI to probe cases in future, they do not have the power to withdraw the consent given in the retrospective dates.

Last month, Uddhav Thackeray-led Maharashtra government had withdrawn the general consent to CBI to probe after UP police had handed over its TRP scam case to CBI.

Meanwhile, for Punjab, the withdrawal comes at a time when the state government is agitated with central government over its contentious farm laws.
