Rahul Gandhi demands clean, pure voter list

Congress leader and Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi said the Opposition is protesting for the right to vote for every Indian, and demanded a ‘clean and pure’ voter list.

Nearly 300 Opposition MPs, led by Rahul Gandhi, marched from Parliament House to the Election Commission office over alleged electoral malpractices, but the protest was blocked by the Delhi Police, resulting in several detentions.

After being detained, Rahul Gandhi said the Election Commission is silent as the truth is before the entire nation. Gandhi asserted, ‘This fight is not political, but for saving the Constitution, a fight for 'one person-one vote'. We want a clean and correct voter list.’ He also accused the Election Commission of silence regarding alleged fake votes in Karnataka.
