Electoral bond data
The Election Commission of India has met the Supreme Court’s deadline by releasing electoral bond transaction data on its website. The data, received from the State Bank of India (SBI) on March 12, includes information on entities purchasing the now-defunct electoral bonds and political parties redeeming them.
The Supreme Court had mandated the EC to disclose details of donors, donation amounts, and recipients following its ruling declaring the electoral bonds scheme unconstitutional. Despite the SBI’s request for an extension until June 30, the apex court rejected it and instructed the bank to provide all necessary information to the Election Commission by Tuesday’s end.
