Yogendra Yadav, the National Convener of the Bharat Jodo Abhiyan, who has been closely and carefully monitoring and assessing the special intensive revision of the electoral rolls presently underway in Bihar, says the exercise is unconstitutional and fraudulent. He compares it to notebandi (demonetisation) and calls it 'votebandi'.

He says: “This is unconstitutional … fundamentally anti-constitution … something fundamental is at stake here, which is universal adult franchise. That is being tinkered with. The architecture of universal adult franchise, which is the very foundation of the constitution, is being overturned.”
