We found many irregularities - rahul Gandhi
Earlier, the former congress president claimed that the number of voters in maharashtra is more than the adult population here. rahul gandhi said, "We represent the entire opposition, which contested the last election in Maharashtra. We want to bring to the attention of the people of india some important information that has come to light regarding the maharashtra elections.

The former congress president claimed that in the period between the lok sabha elections last year and then the maharashtra assembly elections held five months later, the number of voters in the state increased by an amount equal to the population of Himachal Pradesh. "According to him, after the lok sabha elections, 39 lakh voters were added in maharashtra in five months, whereas 32 lakh voters were added in the last five years.
He asked where these voters have come from and who are they? rahul gandhi said, "We are not making allegations, but despite repeated demands from the opposition, the election commission is not providing the data of voters in Maharashtra. This shows that something has gone wrong." He claimed that a large number of voters' names have been removed and most of these voters belong to Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe and minority communities.
