The opposition Congress and CPI(M) welcomed the Supreme Court order on electoral bonds on Friday, while the ruling BJP said it would wait for the final judgement.
The Supreme Court Friday did not stop political funding through electoral bonds but brought several checks on it to bring transparency by directing all political parties to furnish receipts of amounts received and details of identity of donors in a sealed cover to the Election Commission.
Reacting to the judgement, BJP spokesperson and Supreme Court lawyer Nalin Kohli said, "Whatever is the order of the Supreme Court, it has to be complied with and it is always complied with."
Welcoming the verdict, Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi said, "This so-called corrupt invention of bonds is nothing, but a direct assault on the Indian constitutional basic structure."
