However, Chief Election Commissioner N Goapalswami said there was a need for making a distinction between the Congress president and the Gujarat chief minister in the observations on their violation of code of conduct. Long live impartial EC and equally impartial CEC. He is slowly evolving into a schemy politician as PM MMS.
This ostatement by the CEC, Goplaswamy, makes it abundantly clear that the EC is biased and not impartial; it is not transparent either, as it refuses to divulge the reasons for the decision.
"We felt there should be a difference. Can't go into the details of the discussions but we felt there was a need for a slight distinction," he said.

The very fact that he does not want to go into details shows that he does not have any details to show; if he is truly accountable to justice and the people of this country, he is duty bound to reveal the details and the reasons for this distinction and differential treatment. Of course, the EC have said that they "expected" that such violations would not occur in future in the order relating to Sonia. It is an admonition, tho veiled.
