Phone Number Controversy: Man Caught in Political Crossfire Over 'Vote Theft' Allegations

Anjani Mishra, a resident of Meja Road in Prayagraj, finds himself overwhelmed with distressing calls since his phone number was revealed at a press conference by Rahul Gandhi.

Gandhi accused the Election Commission of involvement in 'vote theft,' citing alleged data manipulation from a Karnataka constituency. He criticized Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar for defending what he termed a threat to democracy.

The Election Commission countered Gandhi's allegations as 'incorrect and baseless,' asserting that voter deletion claims are flawed. Meanwhile, Mishra plans to file a complaint to end the barrage of intrusive calls.
