Congress attacks BFP following BLO deaths
Mallikarjun Kharge
Attacking the BJP over the death of some Booth Level Officers (BLOs) in various states, the Congress on Sunday alleged that the workload is forcing BLOs and polling officers to commit suicide, and claimed that the “hasty” implementation of SIR is reminiscent of demonetisation and the COVID-19 lockdown.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the BJP’s “vote chori” has now taken a deadly turn.
Kharge shared on X a media report which claimed that in 19 days, there have been deaths of 16 BLOs during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.
