New Delhi : Amid the heated controversy surrounding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in poll-bound Bihar, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday alleged that Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha possesses two voter identity cards from different assembly constituencies and demanded action against him. Sinha clarified that while his name earlier appeared only in Bankipur, he had applied in April 2024 to add his name to the Lakhisarai voter list and simultaneously requested removal from Bankipur.
Yadav said, Vijay Kumar Sinha is a voter from two different assembly constituencies in two different districts. His name is there in Lakhisarai assembly constituency in the same district and also in Bankipur assembly constituency in Patna district. He has two different Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC) cards. Surprisingly, it has happened after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) by the Election Commission in Bihar.
Who should be held responsible, either Sinha himself or the Election Commission? What action is being taken against Sinha? When will he (Sinha) resign from the post after the revelations?” the Leader of Opposition in Bihar Assembly asked. Even RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav took to X and shared documents showing Sinha’s name mentioned in two Bihar constituencies.
Earlier, names of mine and my family members were listed in Bankipur assembly seat. In April 2024, I had applied to add my name from Lakhisarai. I also filled a form to remove my and my family members’ names from Bankipur. I have evidence. For some reason, my name was not removed from Bankipur and it appeared in the draft electoral roll.
I vote from only one place. Last time too, I voted from only one place. The prince of Jungle-Raj (Tejashwi) is simply trying to mislead people by giving wrong facts. Entire Bihar knows that he (Tejashwi) plays the game of tarnishing the image of others. He should apologise for making false allegations against me, Sinha added.
