Alleging “numerous irregularities” in the Maharashtra polls, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Friday, February 7, claimed there were more registered voters than the entire state’s adult population, and more voters were added in five months between the Lok Sabha and state polls than in the five years before
that.
He also asserted that if the demand to the Election Commission by the state’s opposition parties — Congress, Shiv Sena-UBT and NCP-SP — to be given centralised data of voters’ list for the Lok Sabha elections 2024 and the assembly polls 2024, is not met, the next step would be to approach the judiciary.
