Lucknow: Following the Election Commission of India (ECI) directive concerning the identification of burqa-clad women voters, the decision has sparked controversy as the Samajwadi Party (SP) has said that it undermines transparent, free, and fair elections. However, the BJP has defended the decision.

According to the Election Commission, Anganwadi workers will be deployed at polling booths to assist in verifying the identity of burqa-clad women voters.

The directive, however, has drawn sharp criticism from the SP, which has urged the ECI to immediately withdraw the order, terming it discriminatory and unconstitutional.
