Will not allow NDA to steal votes of the poor through SIR: Rahul

ARARIA (BIHAR): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday accused the NDA government of trying to steal votes in the name of the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar, ahead of the assembly polls.

Addressing a rally here as part of the ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’, Gandhi also slammed the BJP-led central government for “shutting all opportunities of employment” for the poor and youths of the country.

“The Narendra Modi government… after privatising public sector units… now wants to steal votes of the poor through the SIR with the help of the Election Commission,” he alleged. PTI
