From Shah Rukh Khan to Salman Khan, the entire Bollywood clan was seen queuing up at polling booths to exercise their right to vote in the fifth phase of Lok Sabha Elections 2024. While fans were praising for B-town stars for turning up in large numbers,?Gauahar Khan on the other hand was getting massively trolled. She is still facing the heat for her rant against the authorities. Here's what happened.?
At first,?Gauahar Khan had apparently reached the wrong polling booth to cast her vote. In a video doing the rounds, she was seen talking about how things were "very confusing" and "badly organised". Later, she revealed that she was able to vote but at another booth. She said that the?confusion happened because her name on the voter list was enrolled at her old address.?
"People who have left the building are still on that list. I have seen it myself. And if I, my mom, my husband, everyone is registered on that buildingĄ. none of us are there. So how does one vote? We go with our Aadhar card, Id proof and they say, 'No you cannot vote'," she said.?In a rant video, she said that Aadhaar card should be allowed for voting as it is a proof of citizenship.?Furthermore, taking to her Instagram Stories, she wrote, "I have an appeal. Why do we have Aadhaar cards if we are not considered citizens enough to vote? Your Aadhaar card is your identity that you are an Indian citizen and you should be able to vote with that."
