Union Minister Karandlaje Criticizes Opposition Over Electoral Roll Revision Claims
Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje accused the Opposition of creating anarchy to gain power during a press conference in Kerala. She defended the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls as a routine process to update voter lists, noting it had mostly occurred under Congress rule. Karandlaje disputed claims by Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi about mass removals from voter lists, emphasizing that the Election Commission sets the rules and political parties can verify voter details. She highlighted the need to identify deceased, relocated, or duplicate voters amid demographic changes over 20 years.
