LUCKNOW, Dec. 4 -- Claiming that the BJP-led central government was carrying out the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to hide its failures, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav alleged that the BJP was preparing to deprive people of their constitutional rights and reservation benefits. In a statement issued on Wednesday, Akhilesh said: "The BJP government is conducting the SIR to hide its failures. We appeal to everyone to register their votes and prevent them from being cancelled. Otherwise, the BJP is preparing to take away the constitutional rights championed by Baba Saheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar. If the right to vote is taken away, reservations will also end. All other rights guaranteed by the Constitution will be snatched." "The Election Commission's job is to ensure the voting rights of all citizens and to see that no one's vote is cancelled. But whatever is happening is exactly the opposite. Under pressure from the BJP government, the Election Commission is deleting votes. Millions of people were deprived of their right to vote during the SIR in Bihar," Akhilesh said....
