Voting Rights

The Bihar BJP has launched a 15-day political campaign to counter opposition allegations concerning electoral rolls and voting rights. The initiative includes public outreach, press conferences and interactions with students and other sections of society.

The campaign reflects how electoral-roll revision has become a political issue involving voter inclusion, election administration and institutional credibility. Claims about deleted names should be assessed using official records and individual cases rather than political statements alone.

The Bihar BJP has launched a 15-day statewide campaign titled “Save Democracy, End Mob Rule” from October 22 to November 5, 2026. Led by state BJP president Sanjay Saraogi and organisational leaders, the campaign will address electoral-roll accuracy, voting rights and democratic institutions while responding to opposition allegations surrounding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR).

Police stopped a CPI(M)-led march in Patna on October 16 as protesters demanded action over alleged electoral irregularities and the Special Intensive Revision of voter lists. The demonstration reflects a wider political confrontation over electoral transparency and voting rights.

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has announced a statewide protest programme against the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, with an Akrosh March on October 7 and a Lok Bhavan march in Patna on October 8.
