Rahul Gandhi's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' reached Nawada, Bihar, with RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav accompanying him. Tejashwi urged voters to elect the Mahagathbandhan government and make Rahul Gandhi the next prime minister. Rahul Gandhi criticized the Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar, alleging it facilitates vote theft, and warned of exposing such practices if the alliance forms the government. Tejashwi accused the BJP and Election Commission of attempting to deny voters their rights and criticized Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's government. The yatra is part of a broader campaign covering over 20 districts to raise awareness about electoral integrity ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Rahul Gandhi also challenged the Election Commission to respond to his allegations and highlighted concerns over the SIR process. The INDIA bloc, including leaders like Mallikarjun Kharge, remains undecided on a prime ministerial candidate, though Rahul Gandhi is seen as a potential face. The campaign emphasizes protecting the democratic right of 'one person, one vote' in Bihar. (Updated 19 Aug 2025, 13:23 IST; source: link)
