SITAMARHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday claimed that the names of 65 lakh people, who are poor and belong to socially weaker sections, have been deleted from the electoral rolls of Bihar.
Addressing a rally in Sitamarhi as part of the ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’, Gandhi said the people of Bihar would not allow the BJP and Election Commission to “rob” them of their right to vote.
“We have exposed the BJP and the EC, who were indulging in stealing votes… They did it in Maharashtra, Haryana and Karnataka. Now they want to repeat it in Bihar, which we will not allow them to do,” he said.
