At a voter rights event in Sasaram, Bihar, Lalu Yadav called for the defeat of the BJP, urging voters to support his party. He emphasized the need for a united front including Rahul Gandhi, Tejashwi Yadav, and Mallikarjun Kharge. Yadav’s speech included a familiar song, hinting at his determination to push the opposition out of power. Rahul Gandhi addressed the gathering, alleging vote manipulation by the Election Commission, particularly in Maharashtra, where he claimed new voters were added to favor the BJP. He mentioned investigations in Karnataka and criticized the EC’s response to his inquiries. Tejashwi Yadav praised Rahul Gandhi and criticized the perceived injustice against the people of Bihar. The voter rights यात्रा, which began on August 17, aims to address concerns over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar, with plans to cover 1300 km over 16 days, engaging with voters across multiple districts, ahead of the October-November elections.
