On Friday, activist and great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, Tushar Gandhi, said his son`s voter slip did not have the family name and was instead replaced by an unfamiliar name which he couldn`t recall. “The name was completely misspelt; we couldn`t even recognise it. I think it was Gajadhi, but I can`t recall it correctly,” Gandhi said.
He added that his 30-year-old son`s gender was also incorrect in the voter slip. “He has voted in past elections. This is the first time something like this has happened,” he said. There were four others voting in the family, the other three did not face this inaccuracy.
