Opposition figure Revanth Reddy has alleged a Rs 1 crore scheme behind recent voter‑list deletions in Telangana, prompting calls for investigation.
Reports of large‑scale deletions from the electoral roll in Telangana have sparked a political controversy. Opposition leader Revanth Reddy publicly claimed that the removals are part of a coordinated scheme worth about one crore rupees, alleging that the plot is intended to influence upcoming polls.
Reddy did not disclose the identities of those he says are behind the alleged scheme, but he urged the state election machinery to launch a thorough inquiry. He warned that such manipulation could undermine the credibility of the democratic process and disenfranchise legitimate voters.
State election officials have so far declined to comment on the specifics of the allegation, stating that any investigation will follow established procedures. Other political parties have echoed the demand for transparency, calling for an independent audit of the voter list.
The controversy emerges ahead of the next state assembly elections, raising concerns about the integrity of the electoral roll and the potential impact on voter turnout.
