SP Accuses BJP of Rigging Milkipur Bypoll
NEW DELHI: In a dramatic display of dissent, the Samajwadi Party (SP) has leveled serious accusations against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Uttar Pradesh government, claiming they manipulated the administration to rig the recent byelection in Milkipur. The controversy erupted in the Lok Sabha, where SP MPs staged an aggressive protest, brandishing a large white cloth inscribed with “Election Commission,” which they referred to as a “shroud” for the “dead” poll watchdog.
Protests Ignite in Lok Sabha
During the uproar, SP members engaged in vigorous sloganeering, drawing attention not only to the alleged electoral malpractices but also to what they termed as “inhuman treatment” of Indian migrants in the United States. This dual focus on local and international issues effectively paralyzed the proceedings of the House.
Akhilesh Yadav’s Claims
SP President Akhilesh Yadav addressed reporters, asserting that the Election Commission (EC) failed to discharge its duties, disregarding over 500 complaints lodged by his party. He accused the state government of appointing officials based on caste affiliations, aiming to intimidate SP workers and facilitate fraudulent voting in favor of the BJP. Yadav emphasized that there exists substantial evidence pointing towards foul play in the electoral process.
Impact on Upcoming Elections
With the Delhi Elections 2025 on the horizon, the implications of these allegations could significantly influence voter sentiment. Key constituencies such as Kalkaji, Karol Bagh, and others await the unfolding political drama, as parties gear up to mobilize support and counter claims.
