About — T.N. Seshan era (1990–96)
The **T.N. Seshan era (1990–96)** marks a transformative phase as India’s 10th Chief Election Commissioner, where he rigorously enforced electoral integrity by curbing malpractices like booth-capturing and misuse of state machinery. His bold reforms, including strict spending limits and voter ID cards, restored public trust in elections. A defining moment was the **1993 cancellation of Surat and Varanasi polls** due to large-scale fraud, setting a precedent for accountability.
