Hyderabad: BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) accused the Congress Party of running a large-scale voter-fraud operation in the Jubilee Hills Assembly Constituency. On Monday, he met the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Telangana and demanded an immediate investigation.
After handing over his complaint, KTR told reporters that the Congress government was misusing official machinery to influence the election outcome. He said several ministers had camped in Jubilee Hills to pressure voters and divert public funds for the campaign.
Criticising what he called the government’s hypocrisy, KTR remarked, “When their own MLAs admit that Telangana has no funds, the Congress suddenly spends crores in Jubilee Hills to buy goodwill.”
According to KTR, BRS teams detected around 19,000 fake and duplicate votes. They found about 50 false entries in each of the 400 polling booths. Many voters allegedly held multiple ID cards, while others appeared twice with small spelling changes.
Furthermore, he said some houses carried 150–200 registered voters, and one small residence listed more than 100 names. He added that roughly 15,000 new entries appeared without address checks. In one instance, a house owner confirmed that none of the 23 registered voters lived there.
KTR accused local officials of colluding with Congress leaders to manipulate voter lists. He described the episode as a local reflection of “Rahul Gandhi’s national-level electoral fraud.”
He urged the Election Commission to order a comprehensive probe and punish officials who enabled the inclusion of fake voters in Jubilee Hills.
