Abstract

The House of Representatives’ (DPR) right of inquiry is a constitutional oversight instrument provided for in Article 20A(2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. However, in the context of the 2024 General Election, the exercise of the right of inquiry against the General Election Commission (KPU) raises legal and democratic issues regarding the limits of authority and the legitimacy of its use. This study aims to analyze the implications of violations of the legitimacy of the DPR’s right of inquiry on the independence of the KPU and the integrity of the democratic process. The research method employed is normative legal research using a legislative, conceptual, and Constitutional Court decision-based approach. The results indicate that the exercise of the right of inquiry that is disproportionate, politically motivated, or fails to meet formal and material requirements has the potential to undermine the KPU’s independence, erode public trust in election results, and trigger conflicts of authority among state institutions. This study affirms that the DPR’s right of inquiry does not have the authority to annul election results, as that authority resides with the Constitutional Court. Therefore, the exercise of the right of inquiry must be conducted objectively and constitutionally to safeguard the continuity of democracy.
