Opposition lawmakers stage a mock impeachment of India's chief election commissioner in New Delhi on October 31, 2026. — X/@revanth_anumula India's political opposition staged a symbolic impeachment of the election commissioner on Saturday to protest against a revision of voter lists that they say could unfairly benefit the ruling party.
过去一个月,全国范围的选民名册修订在世界最大民主国家引发政治争端和街头抗议。
The nationwide revision of electoral rolls has sparked political disputes and street protests in the world's largest democracy over the last month.
选举委员会称该举措旨在确保选民名单准确,但反对派声称此举被操纵,以有利于总理纳伦德拉·莫迪领导的印度人民党(BJP)。选举委员会和印度人民党均否认指控。
The Election Commission says the initiative is necessary to ensure accurate voter lists, but the opposition claims it is being manipulated to favour Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Both the Election Commission and the BJP deny the allegations.
周六,反对党聚集在国大党主席马利卡琼·卡尔热位于首都新德里的住所,重演议会会议。
On Saturday, opposition parties gathered at the residence of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge in the capital New Delhi, re-enacting a parliamentary session.
他们对首席选举专员贾内什·库马尔举行模拟弹劾程序,此举无宪法或法律效力。卡尔热表示:“我们今天提出的动议旨在维护宪法机构的尊严。”
They held mock impeachment proceedings, which have no constitutional or legal force, against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. "The motion we have brought forward today is aimed at safeguarding the dignity of a constitutional institution," Kharge said.
“我们的意图是让选举委员会依照宪法精神公正运作。”根据宪法,首席选举专员只能通过需要特别多数的议会程序被免职。
"Our intention is for the Election Commission to function impartially, in line with the spirit of the constitution." Under the constitution, the chief election commissioner can only be removed through a parliamentary process requiring a special majority.
国大党高层领导人拉胡尔·甘地表示,反对派诉诸象征性行动是因为他们“别无去处”。
Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said the opposition had resorted to the symbolic exercise as they "have nowhere else to go".
“我们没有其他选择。每一个机构……都对我们关闭大门,”甘地说。
"We have no other option. Every single institution... is closed for us," Gandhi said.
此次活动在一场由“蟑螂人民党”支持的大型反对派集会前一天举行,该党是一个线上青年主导运动,也支持反对选民名册修订的运动。
The event came a day before a major opposition rally in Delhi backed by the Cockroach Janta Party, an online youth-led movement that also supports the campaign against the voter-roll revision.
内政部长阿米特·沙阿表示,印度人民党已准备好召开议会特别会议讨论此次修订。
Home Minister Amit Shah said the BJP was ready to hold a special session of parliament to discuss the revision.
“但他们(反对派)无意在那里发言。他们拒绝让议会运作。相反,他们只是制造混乱,”他说。
"But they (the opposition) have no intention of speaking there. They refuse to let the parliament function. Instead, they just create a ruckus," he said.
