In a significant development ahead of the upcoming Maharashtra legislative council elections, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Anil Parab alleged political interference in the voter list for the Mumbai Graduates' constituency. Speaking at a press conference, Parab claimed that around 10,000 to 12,000 voters registered by his party have been omitted from the final list.
He asserted that the names enrolled by rival parties have been included, hinting at manipulated inclusions and exclusions. The Shiv Sena leader, who is contesting for a historically competitive seat, expressed suspicion that these exclusions were deliberate and aimed at weakening his party's chances.
According to the Election Commission's records, the constituency has 1,20,771 eligible voters. With the polls scheduled for June 26, Parab announced that his party would seek judicial intervention and has already approached the Election Commission, which has promised to investigate the matter.
