NEW DELHI: Congress party on Monday accused EC of being “complicit in voter list manipulation” and cautioned that the party was working on seeking remedy through “legal, political, legislative and any other means”.
“Startling developments on voter list manipulation have surfaced. The same voter ID number is being used for several voters, both from the same constituency in the same state as well as from other states. This is shocking,” Congress’ Empowered Action Group of Leaders and Experts (EAGLE) said in a statement.
The group highlighted that in Dec last year, Congress pointed out huge “irregularities and abnormalities” in voters lists for Maharashtra assembly polls. EC’s stoic silence has only lent credence to their complicity in voter list manipulation,” Congress alleged.
