‘Vote Chori’ Row
The ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ comes amid the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar and Congress’ allegations of “vote theft” by the ruling party, which the party claimed the poll body has failed to address.
“This is not just an election issue – it is a decisive battle to protect democracy, the constitution, and the principle of ‘one man, one vote.’ We will ensure a clean voter list across the entire country,” Rahul Gandhi said in a post on X, mentioning the Yatra.
