Lucknow, 22 Oct (HS): Samajwadi Party (SP) MP Dimple Yadav

has called the action taken against two employees in connection with the voter

list irregularities in Uttar Pradesh's Pilibhit district inadequate. She has

demanded that the Chief Election Commissioner take responsibility and resign on

moral grounds. Dimple Yadav posted this information on her social media

account, X, on Thursday.

SP MP Dimple Yadav wrote in a post on social media on

Thursday that if employees can be prosecuted for negligence related to the

Special Intensive Review (SIR) at the assembly level in Pilibhit, why doesn't the

Chief Election Commissioner take moral responsibility for the serious

irregularities in SIRs across Uttar Pradesh? Morality demands that those

responsible resign, and if found guilty, they should be sent to jail.

It is noteworthy that irregularities in the voter list in

Pilibhit district have come to light following the SIR. Political parties

complained to the Uttar Pradesh Election Commission about this matter.

Following the Commission's preliminary investigation report, two individuals,

including the Electoral Registration Officer and an operator, have been removed

from their duties. Notices have been issued to both, seeking clarification. If

satisfactory answers are not received, the Election Commission will take

further action.
