ECI ‘FACT CHECKS’ RJD MP JHA’S POST ON ELECTORAL ROLL

Facing the heat from various Opposition parties over the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in poll-bound Bihar, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has launched a counteroffensive on social media using the hashtag #ECIFactCheck, labelling posts of several opposition leaders as “misleading”.

Since its debut fact check post on Monday night, ECI's official X handle has challenged posts on SIR by Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, RJD's Tejashwi Yadav and Manoj Kumar Jha, TMC's Sagarika Ghose, and activist Yogendra Yadav.
