Allegations of voter bribery surface as Jubilee Hills bypoll nears

As the Jubilee Hills bypoll campaign concludes, allegations of voter bribery have surfaced against Congress leaders. Viral videos purportedly show Ministers leaving a corporator’s residence with bags suspected to contain cash. BRS leader Dr RS Praveen Kumar accused the ruling party of misusing government vehicles and criticised the absence of police and Election Commission squads.

Hyderabad: With the Jubilee Hills bypoll campaign drawing to a close, accusations of blatant voter bribery by the ruling party have erupted in the high-stakes constituency.

With the pre-poll surveys projecting a strong lead for BRS candidate Maganti Sunitha, widow of the late MLA Maganti Gopinath, the ruling Congress appears to be pulling out all stops to get the better of the BRS candidate at any cost.
