Congress secretary and former Lok Sabha MP Sajjan Singh Verma's name appears in the voters list of two districts in Madhya Pradesh, an electoral official said today.
The official said that Verma's name was found in the voters list for Sonkatch Assembly constituency in Dewas district while the Congress leader claimed that he votes in Indore.
Verma had, about a fortnight ago, lodged a complaint seeking revision of the voters list in Sonkatch from where he has been an MLA earlier claiming that it contained names of around 25,000 bogus voters.
Speaking to PTI today, Sonkatch Assembly constituency returning officer Nita Rathore said, "During the checking of the voters list, Verma's name was found. He has been served notice on August 23 and has been asked to be present at Sonkatch tehsil with documents on August 29."
