RG bursts fake voter ID scam

PANAJI

Revolutionary Goans Supremo Manoj Parab has demanded an investigation on the several fake voter ID cards created on a single house number in Reis Magos Panchayat. 

In a press release, RG states that during the verification process of the 2021 electoral roll, it has come to light that several people have their names and voter ID cards registered on a Goan's house. Twenty-seven voter ID cards for outsiders were created on the house number of a single Goan.

While addressing the media on Friday, Parab pointed out that the biggest issue of the migrant influx was not paid heed to by any political party nor politician, the release stated.

"Several illegalities are being carried out by migrants such as encroachment of land, illegal business, illegal voting card and illegal house numbers. Everyone speaks about saving Goa but no one wants to harm these migrants as they form a major chunk of their vote bank. These illegalities are protected and promoted at the panchayat level," stated Parab. 

"We won't hesitate to go to the vigilance department and seek justice in these kind of matters," he added.
