Following Rahul Gandhi's claims of "vote theft" during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of Bihar's electoral rolls, the BJP has dismissed these allegations as baseless. Party spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad accused Gandhi of spreading lies about voter list fraud and insulting the people of Bihar. He emphasized that the Congress party did not file a single complaint or objection during the SIR process, suggesting that Gandhi's claims were politically motivated rather than evidence-based. In contrast, Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, have raised concerns over the SIR process, alleging that it disenfranchised marginalized communities by removing their names from the voter list. They argue that the revisions were not conducted transparently and may have been politically motivated to benefit certain parties. The Election Commission has refuted the allegations, stating that the SIR process was carried out in accordance with established procedures and that all political parties were given an opportunity to participate and raise objections. The Commission has emphasized its commitment to conducting free and fair elections. #BiharElections #RahulGandhi #VoteAllegations #SIRProcess #ElectionCommissionIndia #PoliticalDebate #VoterRights #TransparencyMatters
