Rohtak, Aug. 18 -- Union power Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Sunday slammed the Congress for their campaign against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, accusing them of protecting their 'vote bank of illegal infiltration and intruders.' Addressing media in Karnal, Khattar said that the Election Commission of India had launched a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) drive to remove the names of fake and deceased persons from the voter rolls. "The Congress party is protesting against this move in Bihar as they were getting fake votes. It seems that Congress has believed in getting fake votes, but now the public is aware of their tactics," he added. Refuting Khattar's allegations, Rohtak MP and Congress leader Deepender Hooda said that the SIR in Bihar is an institutionalised theft of votes and that the same process was implemented in the Haryana and Maharashtra polls. "The ECI and other bodies are working as partners of the ruling BJP. The SIR's objective is to take away the voting rights of the poor."htc...
