"These people are walking the path of Kans," Giriraj Singh slams Congress' 'Voter Adhikar Yatra'

Patna (Bihar) [India], August 17 (ANI): Ahead of Congress's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar, Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the party and said they are "walking the path of Kans" and their defeat is certain, just like Lord Krishna defeated Kans.
Speaking to ANI, Giriraj Singh said, "These people are walking the path of Kans. On the occasion of Janmashtami, I would say that Krishna destroyed Kans. There are some Kans here too, and on the occasion of Janmashtami, their destruction is certain."
Congress's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra', launched against the Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list in Bihar and alleged "vote theft", will begin from Sasaram.
Senior RJD leaders, including Lalu Prasad Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav, are also set to participate.
Preparations are underway outside the residence of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav in Patna.
Addressing reporters on Saturday, Bihar Leader of Opposition (LoP) Tejashwi Yadav said the campaign aims to raise awareness among voters, especially those whose names have been excluded from the electoral list.
"We are starting the 'Vote Adhikar Yatra' from Sasaram tomorrow. Tomorrow, we will all be with the Mahagathbandhan allies. We will visit several districts, and our effort will be to make people aware so that no voter's name is left out. We also have fought for this and got a relief from the Supreme Court in this matter, whether it is the Supreme Court direction to the Election Commission of India to publish the list of 65 lakh persons excluded or deleted from the Bihar draft electoral voters list, along with the reasons," Yadav said.
He described the yatra as a "historical journey" and said the Mahagathbandhan is confident he will get the support of the people.
"Tomorrow, Rahul Gandhi and other leaders of the Mahagathbandhan will go among the people and make them aware of voter rights. Along with this, we will also raise the local issues. We will also convey what our vision would be if we form our government. This is going to be a historical journey, and we will get the blessings of the Bihar voters," he said. (ANI)
