Election Commission Questions Tejashwi Yadav's Voter ID Claims

The Election Commission -- which has refuted Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav's claim that his name is not in the draft voter list -- has now asked him to provide details of the voter ID card he had showed at a press conference yesterday to back his claim. Staunchly denying his claim, the Commission had said the EPIC number of the ID is not "officially issued".  Mr Yadav's claim had come yesterday -- a day after the Commission had published the draft electoral rolls after the hugely controversial Special Intensive Revision or SIR exercise.
