SP Chief Yadav Alleges 'Game' in Bihar Voter List Revision
A leader named Akhilesh Yadav is saying that a special way of updating voter lists in Bihar, called SIR, was like a trick or a game.
He believes this was done to help a political group win.
He says this trick has been discovered and won't work anymore in other places like West Bengal or Uttar Pradesh.
He promised that people will watch closely, using 'watchdogs,' to make sure this kind of manipulation doesn't happen again.
The group in charge of elections, the Election Commission, has said these accusations are not true.
This is happening around the time of election results in Bihar, where one group seems to be winning.
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged that a 'game' was played during Bihar's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.
Yadav claimed that these 'election conspiracies' are now exposed and will not be possible in other states like West Bengal or Uttar Pradesh.
He vowed to use 'PDA Prahari' (watchdogs for Backward, Dalit, Minority) to thwart any such future plans by the BJP.
The SIR in Bihar concluded on September 30, with the final voter list published afterwards, facing opposition protests.
The Election Commission has rejected allegations of working at the behest of the ruling BJP during the SIR process.
