She declared child dead, to fight polls
In a bizarre incident, a woman in Balangir district of Orissa state of India declared one of her child ‘dead’ so that she could contest the panchayat election. The reason: Those who have more than two children cannot contest local polls in the state.
Arati Meher, who is now the Sarpanch of Juba panch-ayat, even submitted a death certificate to prove that she has only two children and therefore eligible to fight the election. However, Minakshee Meher, whom Arati defeated, says her rival’s child is alive and living under a different name with a relative.
