Kerala, Aug 10: AICC general secretary K C Venugopal on Sunday said the Congress will launch a comprehensive audit to uncover alleged irregularities in the voters’ list from the last Lok Sabha elections.
He said there were 48 constituencies where INDIA bloc candidates lost by fewer than 50,000 votes, and the party would carry out extensive checks in all of them.
Speaking to reporters in Alappuzha, Venugopal alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi “did not assume office with a genuine mandate”, claiming this became evident after Rahul Gandhi released “evidence of electoral fraud”.
The AICC general secretaryclaimed the EC has yet to respond to the irregularities flagged. (PTI)
