Bharat Ki Baat: BJP Faces Dual Fire Over MLA Misconduct and Voter Verification Row | ABP NEWS

As monsoon rains cool the country, the political climate is heating up. A viral video from Jaipur shows BJP MLA Balmukund Acharya sitting on a police officer’s chair inside a station, allegedly threatening the officer over streetlight issues. The Hawa Mahal MLA demanded daily reports on repairs, sparking backlash over his conduct. In Madhya Pradesh’s Harda, Congress MLA Abhijeet Shah also stirred controversy during a visit to the collector's office, expressing frustration over administrative lapses. Similar incidents are surfacing from Mau and Pilibhit, where local leaders from SP and BJP clashed publicly. Amid these incidents of political overreach, a separate controversy has emerged over the Election Commission of India’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists. In Bihar’s Darbhanga, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav questioned the presence of BJP district chief Sapna Bharti at a verification center via a viral video. The Telugu Desam Party (TDP), a key NDA ally, has also voiced concerns, urging the EC to ensure voters are not harassed or disenfranchised. As the 2025 elections approach, both power misuse and voter verification controversies are dominating political discourse, with parties across the spectrum questioning democratic fairness and administrative neutrality.
