Akhilesh’s big accusation against SHO.
During the UP by-election polls, riots broke out at polling stations in Kanpur Sisa Mau, Moradabad Kundalki and Muzaffarnagar. Tensions increased in Kundalki when Socialist Party candidate Haji Rizwan called for the election to be cancelled. The SP accused the police of preventing people from voting. Meanwhile, Akhilesh Yadav has made major allegations regarding the Meerapur by-election.
Akhilesh Yadav posted a video on X and wrote that voters are being threatened with revolvers. The Election Commission should immediately suspend SHO. The Samajwadi Party claimed that people were prevented from voting in West Samau in Kanpur, Kundalki in Moradabad, Mirapur in Muzaffarnagar and Kethari in Ambedkar Nagar . Police are checking voters’ ID documents. Prevent them from voting.
The Election Commission should immediately suspend the SHO of Mirapur’s Kakrauli police station area for threatening voters with a revolver and preventing them from casting their votes. @ECISVEEP @SECuttarPradesh@rajivkumarec@spokespersoneci@ceoup#ECI#ä½ æ˜¯TheOne#IVoteForSure#UPpolitics#SamajwadiParty pic.twitter.com/WfiygzqO0t
