# Revanth Reddy accuses PM Modi of creating two classes of voters 2026-10-23T18:11:25+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy alleged on Friday, 23 October, that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is using the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to create two categories of citizens: the rich who have the right to vote and the poor, including Adivasis, Dalits, minorities and women, who do not. He accused the PM of conspiring to win elections by deleting votes. Addressing Congress MLAs in Hyderabad, Reddy compared the INDIA bloc's protest against SIR to the freedom movement's agitation against the Simon Commission. He said the slogan now is 'Gyanesh, go back' targeting Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Reddy claimed nearly 13 crore votes had been deleted, reducing the electorate from 97 crore in 2024 to 84 crore. The Chief Minister called for a massive turnout at the INDIA bloc rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan on 1 November to demand the CEC's resignation. The Economic Times reports he asked for at least 10,000 party workers from Telangana, Deccan Chronicle says he directed the state to mobilise more than 15,000 leaders and workers. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both sources carry the same speech and allegations from the Chief Minister, differing only on the target turnout number, Economic Times reports 10,000 workers, Deccan Chronicle reports over 15,000. The coverage is uniform straight reporting of a political leader's attack on the Election Commission and the Prime Minister, with no editorial framing or independent verification of the claims.
