'EPIC' trouble for Tejashwi: RJD leader's 'name missing' from Bihar poll roll claim prompts EC to look into 'forgery'; what poll panel said

IndiaTimes Saturday, 2 August 2025 ()
Tejashwi Yadav, an RJD leader, claimed his name was missing from Bihar's voter list, alleging a conspiracy. However, the Election Commission of India (ECI) refuted this, stating his name exists with EPIC number RAB0456228, used since 2015. The ECI is investigating a second EPIC number Yadav presented, RAB2916120, which appears non-existent in their records, raising forgery concerns.
