New Delhi [India], August 10 (ANI): Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi called on the Election Commission of India (ECI) to respond to the concerns raised by Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi about electoral duplication.
Speaking to ANI, Chaturvedi said that the Election Commission's continuous evasion of accountability and attempts to silence the opposition through threats are not right.
"Today, every citizen has questions for the Election Commission. The Election Commission's continuous evasion of accountability and attempts to silence the opposition through threats are not right," Chaturvedi said.
"Forty-eight lakh voters were added in Maharashtra between the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections... The Election Commission should answer for this. The Election Commission should also respond to the concerns raised by Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi in the press conference... The nation wants to know the truth and the Election Commission should answer them," she added.
On August 7, Rahul Gandhi held a press conference, citing internal analysis. The LoP stated that the Congress expected to win 16 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka but ended up with only nine.
He said the Congress investigated seven unexpected losses, zeroing in on Mahadevapura, where he alleged vote theft involving 100,250 votes. Presenting Congress's research on voting in the Mahadevapura Assembly in Karnataka, Rahul Gandhi alleged "vote chori" (vote theft) of 100,250 votes.
"We found 100,250 votes stolen in five different ways. Duplicate voters, fake and invalid addresses, and bulk voters in a single address, in a building with 50-60 people living. But when we go there, there is no record of those people living there. "One family living in that house," he said. (ANI)
