šŸ‘•šŸ”„ ā€œ124 Not Out!ā€ – INDIA Bloc’s T-Shirt Protest Shakes Up Parliament! šŸ”„šŸ‘•

TL;DR:Ā In a full-on filmi style protest šŸŽ¬, INDIA bloc MPs marched into Parliament wearing white T-shirts with the face of ā€œ124-year-oldā€ Minta Devi 😲. They shouted about #VoteChori, claiming the Election Commission messed up Bihar’s voter list. Later, fact-checkers found Minta Devi is actually just 35 šŸ˜‚ā€”but the gaffe has become a rallying cry against alleged electoral fraud.

šŸ“ New Delhi turned into a political stageĀ today šŸ’„ as INDIA bloc MPs gathered outside the Parliament’s Makar Dwar, looking like a cricket team ready for a century celebration šŸ. But the number on everyone’s mind wasn’t 100—it was 124. Why? Because each MP’s T-shirt proudly displayed the face of Minta Devi, a voter from Bihar listed as being 124 years oldĀ in the draft electoral rolls. On the back, the slogan screamed: ā€œ124 Not Out!ā€Ā šŸ„³

šŸŽ¤ Rahul Gandhi, never missing a punchline, told media, ā€œIf the Election Commission can’t even get ages right, how will they get democracy right?ā€Ā šŸ˜¤ He called Minta Devi’s bizarre listing a symptom of a bigger disease—#VoterFraud and #VoteTheft.

šŸ‘Š Congress Whip Manickam TagoreĀ didn’t hold back either. He accused the Election Commission of becoming a ā€œBJP departmentā€ šŸ¢, saying the #SIR (Special Intensive Revision) process in Bihar was nothing but a voter roll massacre.

šŸ—³ļø What’s the fuss about SIR?

The Special Intensive RevisionĀ is supposed to clean up the voter list before elections 🧹. But opposition leaders allege that in Bihar, instead of fixing errors, it’s full of fake names, dead voters, and magical centenariansĀ šŸ‘µāœØ.

Minta Devi’s officialĀ age of 124 has now gone viral šŸ“±, turning her into the protest’s mascot. In reality, NDTV dug into her Aadhaar and found she’s 35 years old—meaning she’s still decades away from ā€œ124 Not Outā€ šŸ˜‚. Officials say it was a ā€œdata entry mistakeā€ šŸ–„ļø, but the opposition insists this is proof of a larger #ElectionScam.

šŸŽ­ Drama, Memes & Street Buzz

Within hours, social media was flooded with memes šŸ“ø. One showed Minta Devi with a cricket bat saying, ā€œEven Sachin retired earlier!ā€Ā šŸ. Another joked, ā€œGovernment will soon launch a pension scheme for the youth—above 120 years old!ā€

In Patna, chai shops ā˜• became mini political panels, with locals laughing at the error but also nodding seriously about the risk of #Democracy being compromised.

🧩 From People’s Perspective

For the working class, this isn’t just about a funny typo šŸ˜…. Every wrong entry in the voter list means a real person’s voice can be lost. A farmer in Begusarai told MediaFx, ā€œIf they can make a 35-year-old into 124, they can also make a living man disappear from the list.ā€Ā This hits the poor hardest—they can’t afford lawyers or endless trips to government offices to get their name fixed.

šŸ“¢ MediaFx Opinion

This T-shirt protest may look like a PR stunt 🤳, but it’s also a mirror to the rot in our electoral process. If the voter list is not accurate, elections are a joke—and a joke at the expense of the poorest. From the people’s perspective, what matters is transparency and accountability. Because without that, the slogan ā€œ124 Not Outā€ could soon become ā€œDemocracy All Outā€ šŸšŸšØ.
