Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 3 (ANI): Janata Dal United (JDU) leader KC Tyagi on Sunday slammed Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav on claims of his name missing in the draft electoral rolls of Bihar and said that he was spreading misleading propaganda.

They are spreading misleading propaganda. The Election Commission has clearly stated that his name is there on the voter list, Tyagi told ANI.

Yadav, a former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister, had made allegations against the ECI over the draft electoral rolls published on Friday, first saying that his name is missing and then stating that his EPIC number has been changed.

Election Commission sources said on Saturday RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav name is there in the Draft Electoral Rolls published as per Special Intensive Revision (SIR) and no records have been found for second EPIC number yet.

The sources said that RJD leader baseless argument that his name was removed from the electoral rolls has already been refuted by the Election Commission of India.

ECI clarified that Tejashwi name is included in the draft voter list at serial number 416. It has come to our attention that Tejashwi Yadav has made a mischievous claim that his name does not appear in the draft electoral roll. His name is listed at Serial Number 416 in the Draft Electoral Roll. Therefore, any claim stating that his name is not included in the draft electoral roll is false and factually incorrect, the poll panel said. (ANI)
