RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav made another revelation in a press conference on Sunday (August 10, 2025). The Leader of the Opposition used two EPIC numbers on the official ECI website to demonstrate that Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Vijay Kumar Sinha is registered as a voter in two separate Assembly constituencies, with two different ages listed.
Mr. Yadav presented two EPIC numbers, both bearing Vijay Kumar Sinha’s name, with one linked to the Bankipur Assembly seat in Patna and the other to the Lakhisarai Assembly seat.
Mr. Yadav alleged that the entire process of Special Intensive Revision (SIR) is fake. He asked how Mr. Sinha’s name figured in two Assembly seats in the electoral draft rolls.
Mr. Yadav alleged that a Booth Level Officer (BLO) must have visited two places in which Mr. Sinha would have given his signature.
He further asked the ECI and the district administrations of Patna and Lakhisarai, what kind of action would be taken against him, highlighting the ECI’s swiftness in issuing him a notice.
Mr. Yadav alleged that ECI should not become a tool to help the BJP.
“If Mr. Sinha is found guilty, he should resign and if ECI is guilty the ECI commissioner should apologise,” Mr. Yadav said.
