The Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) gives the Chief Electoral Commissioner (CEC) a 48-hour ultimatum to quit and demands that the State Information Register (SIR) be halted. The group says it will hold nationwide protests if its demands are not met within the deadline.
The Economic Times and Times of India both report the same core claim: CJP is pressuring the CEC directly and linking its immediate action to the SIR dispute. However, the two outlets’ framing differs slightly. Times of India emphasizes the threat of a nationwide stir and calls for stopping the SIR. The Economic Times focuses more on the ultimatum itself and the stated dispute involving the CEC in relation to the SIR.
Taken together, the reports indicate that CJP is applying time-bound political pressure amid controversy over the SIR and the role of election authorities. Neither outlet, in the information provided here, adds further detail on what specific objection CJP raises against the SIR process or what response the CEC has given so far.
