Row Over Cross-Voting Snowballs, Congress's Manish Tewari Calls For Probe
The allegations of cross voting at the Vice Presidential elections by Opposition MPs has now blown up into a full-fledged political row. As the BJP sharpened its digs at the Opposition, suggesting an internal rift ahead of a string of state elections, Congress's Manish Tewari demanded an investigation into the matter. Mr Tewari said such cross-voting is a serious breach of trust and raises questions about internal unity.
"If there was cross-voting, then it should be seriously investigated by each of the constituents of the INDIA Alliance. Cross-voting is an extremely serious matter," Mr Tewari said.
