Jubilee Hills By-election: BRS Alleges Congress Distributing Freebies
In a neighborhood election, one political party called BRS is telling the election helpers that another party, the Congress, is trying to cheat.
The BRS says the Congress is giving people money, new clothes, and kitchen appliances to get their votes.
They have shown proof of this to the election helpers and asked them to stop it and make sure the election is fair.
The BRS also wants extra security at some polling places and for voters to be checked carefully to make sure they are allowed to vote.
They believe the voters are smart and won't be fooled by these tricks.
BRS leaders allege that the ruling Congress party is distributing money, saris, mixer grinders, and liquor to voters in the Jubilee Hills constituency.
A BRS delegation, including T Harish Rao, submitted evidence of alleged cash distribution to the Chief Electoral Officer.
BRS has requested the Election Commission to take action against officials they claim are misusing power in favor of the ruling party.
The party is also raising concerns about fake voter IDs and demanding stricter verification processes at polling booths.
BRS has specifically requested the deployment of central forces and women police personnel in sensitive polling booths.
