29 voters registered at single address in Bhopal: Digvijaya
Bhopal (PTI): Congress Rajya Sabha member Digvijaya Singh has claimed that 29 unrelated voters have been registered at a single address in the Narela assembly constituency of Bhopal district.
He visited polling booth 189 in Pushpa Nagar in Narela on Saturday to look into the matter.
"At booth number 189 in the Narela assembly constituency, in house number 70, where the Madhya Pradesh Shikshak Sangh office is located, 30 people have been shown as residents, even though only one person actually lives there. The remaining 29 names are bogus additions," Singh told reporters.
"We tried to meet the BLO, supervisor, and ARO. This is an RSS office. If such fraud is occurring at a place where RSS meetings are held, then who should be held accountable? The entire SIR process is fraudulent," he alleged.

Karnataka's Bill against Hate Speeches conspiracy against Hindutva activists: Pramod Muthalik
Davanagere: Sri Rama Sene national president Pramod Muthalik has accused the state government of using the proposed Hate Speech and Hate Crimes (Prevention) Bill to target Hindus and to suppress Hindutva organisations and their leaders.
Speaking at a press conference on Saturday, Muthalik said the Sene opposes the Bill. According to him, the government is bringing this legislation only to appease Muslim voters while selectively targeting Hindu voices.
He questioned whether it is wrong to speak against cow slaughter when the ban is already in force but violations still occur in many places. “Is it wrong to raise awareness among Hindus about love jihad? Is it wrong to oppose illegal construction of churches, mosques or encroachments on cremation grounds? Is objecting to religious conversions wrong?” he asked.
Muthalik alleged that the Bill attempts to silence anyone who questions or protests such issues. He said the move goes against the spirit of the Constitution framed by Dr B.R. Ambedkar and is aimed at weakening the Hindu community.
He urged BJP and JD(S) MLAs to strongly oppose the Bill in the upcoming session and ensure it does not get passed. The organisation will submit memorandums to all legislators and mount pressure, he added.
During the press meet, Muthalik tore copies of the Bill in protest. Leaders of Sri Rama Sene including Parashuram Nadavinamani, Yashavanth, Sridhar and Madhu were present.
