Chief Minister Stalin's Kolathur constituency has 4,379 fake voters, alleges Nirmala Sitharaman

Debunking the protests by the ruling DMK and its allies across Tamil Nadu against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls as a diversionary tactic to conceal the Stalin government's failure, BJP leader and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday claimed that the Chief Minister's assembly constituency in Chennai itself had 4,379 fake voters.

"The SIR exercise is being carried out to remove fake voters only. But Chief Minister MK Stalin is deriding it as a conspiracy. Even in his Kolathur constituency, there are 4,379 fake voters. Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi doesn't even know what the SIR is about, and the DMK protest is an attempt to hoodwink the people," she said, while addressing the media, after participating in the Zonal Core-Committee meeting of the BJP in Coimbatore.
