BJP Worker Caught Plotting to Bribe Officials Ahead of UP Polls

MAY 25, 2024 : In a significant development ahead of the May 7 elections, the ABC has alleged to have obtained and verified a video showing Bhuvnesh Kumar Varshney, a BJP worker, conspiring to bribe police and polling officials in the Sambhal constituency of Uttar Pradesh. The video captures Varshney discussing strategies to influence the polling process in favor of the BJP. This revelation comes at a critical time, raising concerns about the integrity of the upcoming elections. In the footage, Varshney can be heard outlining plans to distribute money to local officials to secure their cooperation on election day. 





 



The intent appears to be to manipulate the voting process to ensure a BJP victory in the constituency.Opposition parties have reacted strongly to the video, demanding immediate action and an investigation into the matter. This is a blatant attempt to undermine the democratic process,said a spokesperson for the Samajwadi Party.  The BJP, on the other hand, has distanced itself from Varshney, stating that any individual found engaging in illegal activities does not represent the party's values. They have assured full cooperation with any inquiry initiated by the authorities. As the controversy unfolds, the Election Commission's response and subsequent actions will be crucial in maintaining public confidence in the electoral process.
