The federal commission of inquiry into foreign interference is looking to examine alleged meddling by India in the last two general elections.

In a statement today, the commission says it has asked the federal government to produce documentation related to these allegations.

The commission’s terms of reference, published last year, direct it to assess possible interference by China, Russia and other foreign states or non-state actors in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections.
