Lok Sabha MP Kalyan Banerjee’s Zero Hour mention on the issue of large-scale duplication of EPIC voter identity card numbers across states

Lok Sabha MP Kalyan Banerjee’s Zero Hour mention on the issue of large-scale duplication of EPIC voter identity card numbers across states

Madam, the faulty voter list is a serious concern in the country itself. Our Chief Minister first flagged the issue of numerous instances of duplicate voter cards. The explanation given by the Election Commission is clearly a breach of Rule 20 of the Election Conduct Rules itself. These things have been happening for the last few years. Earlier, it was not there. That is why there is an increase in votes. In West Bengal, the voters are coming from Gujarat and Haryana. This is not tolerable. The Election Commission all the time says that they are conducting elections in a transparent and fair manner. It is clear that there had been no transparent elections in the last few years. There had been no fair elections in the last few years, not at all. The Election Commission has not acted properly, and appropriate proceedings should be brought against the for that reason.
