Intense Voter List Manipulation Allegations Rock Delhi Amidst Political Battle

AAP's Priyanka Kakkar accused BJP of voter list manipulation in Delhi, specifically blaming leaders Vishal Bharadwaj and Parvesh Sharma. As Delhi Assembly polls approach, tensions escalate with allegations from all political fronts, while the Chief Electoral Officer assures due process was followed for electoral roll updates.

In a charged political climate ahead of the 2025 Delhi Assembly polls, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar has leveled serious accusations against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), alleging efforts to manipulate voter lists in the capital city.

Kakkar specifically pointed fingers at BJP leaders Vishal Bharadwaj and Parvesh Sharma. She claimed Bharadwaj submitted applications to delete voters' names in the Shadara constituency, and accused Sharma of monetary inducements for votes in the New Delhi constituency. The controversy has heightened political tensions with both sides trading barbs.

Responding to these claims, the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Delhi emphasized adherence to electoral protocols, stating all objections regarding the draft electoral roll were resolved by December 24, with the final roll slated for publication on January 6, 2025. This assurance comes amidst a backdrop of an intense political showdown involving AAP, BJP, and Congress, each hurling allegations at the others as the election date draws near.
