State Poll funding

The Election Commission maintains the full state funding of polls would make sense only in tandem with reforms to decriminalise politics, inner party democracy, electoral finance reform, audit mechanisms and stricter implementation of anti-graft laws.

The Law Commission too has reservations on the efficacy of state funding at this juncture,

It is only a strong leader like Narendra Modi who can bring about changes in this regard. One is sure he would do something in this regard sooner or later. We wish him good luck
