Deadly clashes have erupted in Pakistan-administered Kashmir after weeks of protests and road blockades.
Protesters are demanding political reforms, including the removal of disputed assembly seats ahead of legislative elections.
BJP voters today are stuck in the same loop. They don’t really have a choice. If they get frustrated, they drift towards Congress, and after seeing the reality there, they end up returning to BJP again.
India deserves real options, not forced loyalty. When politics becomes a choice between bad and worse, democracy suffers.
Here’s what our on-ground checks found after Rahul Gandhi said the Haryana polls were “stolen”.
In Hodal, the two “single houses” with 66 and 501 voters are, in fact, large family plots with multiple homes using a common house number.
At House 150 (Gudhrana), 4 generations share one address; at House 265, locals said the tract now hosts 200 houses and 3 private schools, so unrelated buyers also vote with 265 as the registered number.
In Rai (Sonipat), we traced 4 women whose roll photographs matched a Brazilian stock image flagged by Rahul.
Each is a real local voter who said she voted without incident. “I used my 2012 voter card and the slip they issued,” said Sweety; Harsha showed Darshana Joon’s 2019 voter ID, adding, “the photo on the roll is clearly wrong.”
One case (Pinki) involved a wrong local photo on her EPIC; she still voted with a voter slip and Aadhaar while awaiting a corrected card.
