Alarm bell for Congress Which Congress MLA did cross voting in the presidential election? The report of these four MLAs will be sent to the high command

Congress is in turmoil due to cross-voting of a party MLA in the presidential election. The state unit is sending a report in this regard to the high command. The formation of a committee from the high command will be advocated for a high-level inquiry into the matter. Congress State President Karan Mahra and Leader of Opposition Yashpal Arya termed cross voting as a crime against the party. Challenging Mahara said that the cross-voting MLA should come out in the open. If they do not want to be in the party, they can leave immediately. According to the presidential election voting data, a Congress MLA in Uttarakhand is being cross-voted in favor of NDA candidate Draupadi Murmu. The vote of a Congress MLA was invalid due to wrongful voting. As soon as the cross-voting was revealed, there was an uproar in the Congress. Mahra held discussions with Leader of Opposition Arya in the morning itself. State in-charge Devendra Yadav was also informed about this.

According to sources, the high command is very serious on this issue. A high-level committee can soon be formed to investigate the matter. There is also full preparation to take disciplinary action against the MLA guilty of cross voting. In a conversation with the media at Rajiv Bhavan in the afternoon, Mahara bluntly said that the cross-voting MLA has shown inferiority. If there is any morality left in them, come out in the open. Instead of hiding like thieves, walk away from the party on your own.

Alarm bell for congress

Cross voting has raised alarm bells for Congress. Voting for BJP against the party line is a direct violation of the order of the high command, but at the local level, there is also a question on the state in-charge Devendra Yadav, state president Karan Mahra and leader of opposition Yashpal Arya. According to sources, the manner in which cross-voting took place and MLAs have remained absent despite strict orders from the high command, is also being seen as the growing closeness of some party leaders to the BJP.

The report of the four MLAs will be sent to the high command
Congress’s Kichha MLA Tilakraj Behad and Badrinath MLA Rajendra Bhandari did not participate in the presidential election. Many MLAs had reached Doon in the morning on the day of polling. On behalf of the state leadership, the report of the absent MLAs, cross-voting and wrong-voting of the four MLAs will be sent to the high command. It is also not easy to detect cross voting and invalid voting. Since it is a secret ballot, its record is kept confidential. Second, the legislators are free to vote even if the party whip is not issued.
