Ground report 🚨

On the morning Sambhal voted, 30-40 police officers stormed polling centres in Muslim villages, snatched IDs, assaulted voters and disrupted peaceful polling, dozens of eyewitnesses in 4 villages told @scroll_in.

#LokSabhaElections2024
scroll.in/article/106769… While voters faced physical assault, @DmSambhal and @ECISVEEP misled public online.

I went to this exact village and found that @bainjal's claim was true.

ECI said that "no voter was denied their right to cast vote" — I spoke with 3 who were.

Do you remember this video? It went viral in April. It shows a Lok Sabha candidate in Gandhinagar sobbing and complaining that he was "hijacked" by "Amit Shah's people".

His name is Jitendra Chauhan. I tracked him down and a story began unfolding. @scroll_in. 1/10. Chauhan runs a small painting business in Ahmedabad. This year, he decided to contest in the general elections.

But days after he filed his nomination, he came under pressure to withdraw. He told me it came from BJP MLA Dinesh Singh Kushwah (in pic) and Gujarat police. 2/10. Image

How the Modi govt's amendment to the Electoral Bonds scheme in 2022 helped it rake in nearly 600 crore within 14 days.

The biggest donors in these 14 days — Reliance-linked firms and Vedanta.

A thread. (1/4) Image Originally, the Electoral Bond scheme only allowed for 4 sale windows in a non-general election year.

2022 was one such year.

But on November 7 — 5 days before Himachal went into polls — the Modi government amended this rule to allow 15 more days of EB sale. Image
