"As you may be aware, that being registered in the electoral roll of more than one constituency is a penal offence under the Representation of People Act 1950. You are therefore, directed to show cause as to why action should not be taken against you under said Act," read the notice.

The BJP on Tuesday alleged that Khera had two voter IDs and Rahul Gandhi was running a campaign against voter roll revision in Bihar to "protect and hide" his party's theft of votes.
