Jaipur: Referring to media reports of alleged 1383 fake objections filed in a single day under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process in Ramgarh, Alwar, in the name of a BJP booth-level agent (BLA), the opposition Congress has accused the BJP of Vote Chori hijacking the mandate through forged documents.

Ashok Gehlot cries conspiracy

Former CM Ashok Gehlot said that the Ramgarh (Alwar) case is proof of not just Vote Chori but a well-planned conspiracy to hijack the mandate through forged documents. The BJP tried this across the state, but their plan has been exposed.

Demanding to lodge an FIR against the people involved in this alleged forgery and the officers, Gehlot said, “This raises serious questions about the role of the administration and the Election Commission. It is the responsibility of the State Chief Electoral Officer, Naveen Mahajan, to ensure that such illegal activities do not take place. I demand that he immediately register criminal cases (FIRs) against the people involved in this forgery and the officers who remained silent spectators and take strict legal action.”

Dotasra targets EC

Congress state president Govind Singh Dotasra targeted the Election Commission of India and wrote on X: Gyanesh Kumar… What kind of SIR process is going on in Rajasthan? How much more evidence is needed of the conspiracies to steal votes in every assembly constituency of the state? This is not a democratic system, but the height of BJP's shamelessness.

As per media reports, on December 13, Ramgarh Sub-Divisional Magistrate Babu Lal Jatav received 1383 objections offline, and notices were issued to Booth Level Officers (BLOs) for their verification. This huge number of objections caused an uproar, after which the notices were withdrawn. By midnight on January 15, the number of online objections reduced to 372.
