Telangana Congress leader criticizes BJP over voter list discrepancies

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) Vice President Dr. Kota Neelima has accused the BJP of attempting to hide serious discrepancies in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists. She stated that the BJP’s new campaign is an effort to intimidate citizens and label them as anti-national for raising legitimate concerns regarding the electoral process.

Neelima commented on the ‘Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy’ campaign launched by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Hyderabad, suggesting it targets citizens rather than addressing their concerns. This follows a large-scale rally in Delhi on November 1, led by Congress leaders including Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and Priyanka Gandhi, alongside various members of the INDIA bloc.

The opposition has alleged that the removal of over 130 million voters, representing approximately 14 percent of the country’s population, constitutes a direct attack on democracy and the right to vote.
