Ex-CEC: Judge a man by talent, not religion
Former chief election commissioner S Y Quraishi strongly condemned BJP MP Nishikant Dubey’s “Muslim commissioner” remark, asserting his belief in judging individuals by their contributions, not religious identity. Quraishi criticized the use of religious labels to promote divisive politics. Several political leaders, including Akhilesh Yadav and D Raja, have criticized Dubey’s remarks, with some praising Quraishi’s service as election commissioner.
