    PATNA: Minta Devi, a 35-year-old from Bihar, who unexpectedly became the INDIA bloc’s “vote chori” mascot after a data entry error pegged her age at 124, on Wednesday objected to the opposition using her name and photo on T-shirts to target the Union govt.“Politics is being done in my name. Who gave Priyanka Gandhi and others the right to display my face and name on their T-shirts?” asked Minta, a first-time voter from Siwan. She said the controversy had caused “mental torture” to her middle-class family.Minta explained she had applied online for a voter ID, submitting her Aadhaar as proof. A clerical error recorded her birth year as 1900 instead of 1990. The mistake came to her notice only after the opposition’s “124 Not Out” campaign went viral.“This is my first voter ID card, and it has created such an uproar,” she said, adding in jest that if her official age was 124, the govt should extend her old-age benefits. “Since the Election Commission has made me a grandmother, PM Modi should give me something too,” she quipped.She stressed she wanted no part in any campaign and sought to be left out of the row.
