Center Owned by The Tribune TrustECI work allocation row: IT head Seema Khanna brought back under Deputy Election Commissioner
What's behind this
The Election Commission of India issued a new work‑allocation order that restored DEC‑level oversight of its IT division after two Election Commissioners – Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi – raised objections to an earlier order issued by senior Deputy Election Commissioner Maneesh Garg. An EC official later said the revision did not alter supervision of the IT chief. The Hindu noted that a fresh internal order bringing back oversight on the IT head had been issued on July 28.
