The opposition BJP has accused the BJD of distributing cash among voters through members of self-help groups (SHGs) in by-election-bound Dhamnagar assembly segment, a charge denied by the ruling party.
A purported video of a woman distributing cash among other women in Dhamnagar surfaced on social media, following which a BJP delegation, led by its general secretary Lekhashree Samantasinghar, met Odisha's Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) SK Lohani and sought action in the matter.
The delegation on Sunday also submitted at the CEO office the viral video, where the woman, covering her face with scarf, was seen distributing cash to people for attending a rally.
The BJP alleged that the people seen accepting the money in the video clip were the same ones who had attended a BJD rally in Dhamnagar two days ago, and that the woman was a member of a self-help group.
