SIR Storm: Infiltrators vs Vote Chori Row Escalates Between BJP and Congress| Watch Panelists Debate
On India First with Gaurav, Bharatiya Janata Party national spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari clashed with Congress national spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar, alongside political analysts Ashutosh and Rajat Sethi, over allegations of voter deletions and infiltrators. Defending the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process, Bhandari cited official data to argue that crores of deceased, duplicate, and relocated entries were removed from voter lists, stating, 'why are you backing the dead voters?' He accused the opposition of defending bogus rolls and illegal infiltrators. In response, Kakkar hit back at the government, asserting that the administration lacks verified data identifying actual infiltrators and accused the ruling party of deploying divisive rhetoric and manipulating booth targets. Meanwhile, Ashutosh recalled past electoral history to counter claims of historic defeats, while Rajat Sethi demanded uniform support for verification mechanisms like the National Register of Citizens (NRC). The panel debated institutional integrity, Election Commission actions, and the credibility of electoral lists.
