<h1>Opposition vice-presidential nominee seeks cross-party backing, offers talks with ruling leaders, decries voter-roll overhaul and dignity violations</h1> Opposition vice-presidential nominee sought cross-party support and offered to meet ruling party leadership, calling for a fair election and challenging a recent special intensive revision of electoral rolls as an overreach. He alleged constitutional violations and infringement of dignity by state and central authorities in the treatment of a state chief minister who was investigated by the Enforcement Directorate and later granted bail by a high court. The nominee framed these actions as undermining constitutional values of equality, fraternity and individual dignity while positioning himself against the ruling coalition's candidate in the upcoming vote.
