Overview
- Rahul Gandhi amplified a Congress post alleging that all 947 voters of Nidani village’s Booth No. 161 are listed under house number 6.
- Congress cast the listing as proof of broader irregularities, questioned door-to-door verification, and asked the Chief Election Commissioner to respond.
- The Gaya district administration posted four videos of residents stating the voters are genuine and that homes in the village lack assigned numbers.
- The Bihar Chief Electoral Officer said Booth Level Officers use notional or symbolic house numbers to organize rolls where dwellings have no formal numbering.
- The dispute surfaced during Gandhi’s Voter Adhikar Yatra in Bihar, which has focused on alleged discrepancies in the state’s draft rolls.
