Prayagraj resident Anjani Mishra on Friday said he plans to file an application with the police because he was receiving nonstop calls and plans to approach the police after his mobile number appeared during Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s press conference on alleged vote theft on September 18.

Mishra, speaking to News18, said that he first thought he was subjected to some kind of a “fraud". “But later I found out that my number was shown in Rahul Gandhi’s press conference. Since yesterday, I’ve been getting a large number of unknown calls," Mishra said.

He said that the Indian Congress (INC) is yet to formally issue a notification or apologise. ““Today, I will be submitting an application to the police against this. I have never been to Maharashtra," he told News18.

Mishra claimed that he was being pressured not to take action. “I’m receiving all kinds of calls," he added.

“People are telling me not to file an FIR, saying it could create problems, (but) right to privacy is mine (and it is) my number (that) has been made public and I’m facing a lot of trouble because of it".

He said that he has been “using this number for the past 15 years".

“My number was made public yesterday, my entire routine has been disrupted," Mishra complained.
