K'taka Polls 2018:CM Siddaramaiah says'No comments
BENGALURU:With BJP and JD (S) petitioning the Election Commission of India on Tuesday night to countermand the election in the Rajarajeshwari Nagar constituency following the seizure of a huge number of voter ID cards and numbered counterfoils from an apartment in Jalahalli, Chief Electoral Officer Sanjiv Kumar, while promising firm action, said, "We can not yet decide whether to countermand the polls in Rajarajeshwari Nagar".
In the wake of the huge voter identification card scam being unearthed, the BJP and JD (S) have both demanded the countermanding of elections at the Rajarajeshwarinagar constituency in Bengaluru.
Chief Electoral Officer, Sanjiv Kumar who visited the flat, said "an appropriate decision" would be taken by the ECI. More than 20000 Voter ID cards found at a private apartment.
"The flat [Flat No. 115, SLV Parkview Apartment, Jalahalli] belongs to one Manjula Nanjamuri and was rented out to one Sri Rakesh".
Kumar, however, said that as per the preliminary verification, the voter cards were found to be genuine but, the counterfoils were to be verified through investigation.

However, Kumar said that thorough investigations would be conducted and only after the Election Commission would decide a course of action in New Delhi.
A massive storm has erupted over allegations of fake voter IDs in Karnataka, ahead of polls. The seat had been won by Congress candidate Munirathna Naidu in 2013 with a 37 percent share vote.
The BJP alleged that the apartment was connected to a Congress lawmaker, while the Congress claimed that the apartment was connected to the BJP and that the BJP was enacting a "midnight drama" by planting "fake evidence" to attract attention.
Muniratna is a senior influential Congress leader from Raja Rajeshwari Nagar Constituency. She had rented it to her adopted son, who had contested the BBMP elections in 2015 and lost, he added. He also alleged that the flat was raided neither by EC nor by police but by the BJP workers. "This is Congress conspiracy to rig election in the face of their imminent defeat", tweeted Union Human Resource Development Minister and the party's in-charge for state polls Prakash Javadekar.
