Recently had the privilege to participate in a thought-provoking discussion on DD Urdu's program APNA MULK APANA AAIYN, hosted by the insightful Nauman Hasmi. Alongside me was the esteemed Dr. Parul Gurudev, a distinguished Advocate, adding depth to our discourse.

The engagement was enriched further by the presence of eager law students from Maharaja Agersen College, lending a vibrant energy to the conversation.

We delved deep into the nuances of the People Representation Act, dissecting its implications and addressing the pressing issues plaguing our current electoral system. From electoral reforms to the challenges hindering the realization of a truly free and fair election process, every aspect was scrutinized.

Having handled numerous election-related cases at the Supreme Court and contributing to various deliberations convened by the Election Commission, I shared insights garnered from firsthand experiences. Additionally, my involvement in the High-Level Committee formed by PM Modi, under the leadership of Ex-President Ram Nath Kovind, on the crucial matter of 'one nation, one election', provided valuable perspectives. Challenges Before India Today:

Ensuring impartiality and transparency in the electoral process amidst rising concerns of malpractices. Addressing the influence of money and muscle power in elections.

Tackling the menace of fake news and misinformation impacting voter decisions. Enhancing voter participation and trust in the electoral process, especially among marginalized communities. Proposed Solutions:



Implementation of stringent measures to curb electoral fraud and ensure accountability.

Introducing reforms to regulate campaign financing and reduce the influence of money in politics.

Strengthening cybersecurity measures to safeguard against external interference and manipulation.

Promoting voter education and awareness initiatives to empower citizens with accurate information.

As we navigate the complexities of modern democracy, it's imperative to foster inclusive dialogues and advocate for reforms that uphold the sanctity of our electoral system. Together, let's strive towards a future where every voice is heard, and every vote truly counts.
