NEW DELHI: Accusing the governing BJP and UP govt of using the administration to “rig” the byelection in Milkipur, Samajwadi Party on Thursday resorted to an aggressive protest in Lok Sabha, even holding up a big white cloth with “election commission” written on it, that the party said was a “shroud” for the “dead” poll watchdog.
SP MPs indulged in sloganeering against “rigging” that, coupled with protests over “inhuman treatment” to Indian migrants in the US, paralysed House proceedings.
SP president Akhilesh Yadav told reporters that EC did not perform its duty and did not respond to even one of the 500 complaints filed by his party. He said the state had posted officers based on caste affiliations to intimidate SP workers & facilitate fake voting in favour of BJP. He said there is overwhelming evidence of foul play. tnn
