The government today said it has no proposal to introduce a 'collegium' system to appoint election commissioners, a recommendation made by the Law Commission as part of its report on electoral reforms.
It also said that it has no plans as of now to draft a law on selecting the chief election commissioner as well as fellow election commissioners.
"No madam," said Minister of state for Law PP Chaudhary in the Lok Sabha in a written reply to a question on whether there was a proposal to introduce a collegium system as part of a selection process to appoint election commissioners in future.
"At present, no such proposal is under consideration of the union government," the minister said to a question on whether the Centre will seek the advice of all parties before drafting a law on the selection process of Chief Election Commissioner and fellow Election Commissioners.
