flag India's Supreme Court seeks government and Election Commission responses on a petition challenging anonymous cash donations to political parties under ₹2,000, citing transparency and voter rights concerns.

flag The Supreme Court of India has sought responses from the central government and Election Commission on a petition challenging a provision allowing political parties to accept anonymous cash donations under ₹2,000. flag The plea, filed by Khem Singh Bhati, argues the rule undermines transparency, violates voters’ right to information under Article 19(1)(a), and enables undisclosed financial influence. flag It seeks to invalidate Section 13A(d) of the Income Tax Act, demand full donor disclosure, ban cash donations, and enforce stricter audits. flag The court, citing nationwide implications, agreed to hear the case after four weeks, following its 2024 ruling that struck down electoral bonds.
