Serious allegation by Arvind Kejriwal: Thousands of voters' names are being removed from the voter list in Delhi
Claim of removal of more than 11,000 names in Shahdara area, demand to ensure transparency
There has already been a buzz in the political corridors of the capital Delhi regarding the assembly elections to be held next year. Aam Aadmi Party's national convener and former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has continuously adopted an aggressive stance against the BJP. On Friday, Arvind Kejriwal once again made a big allegation against the BJP and claimed that the names of voters are being removed from the voter list in Delhi, whose number is in thousands. He said, 'The BJP has applied to remove the names of 11,018 voters in Shahdara area. But when we cross-checked that application on 500 names, 75 percent of the people were still living there, but their names could be removed from the electoral list. '
Kejriwal claimed that the AAP won the Shahdara assembly seat by about 5,000 votes in the 2020 elections. The AAP convenor said, 'The names of about 11,000 voters are being removed in that constituency and most of these voters are AAP supporters.' AAP's Ram Niwas Goyal had won the Shahdara seat by defeating BJP's Sanjay Goyal. He said that in the last election, AAP had won the Shahdara assembly seat by about 5,000 votes. He alleged that now the names of about 11,000 voters are being removed in that constituency and most of these voters are AAP supporters.
Kejriwal urged the Election Commission to upload all the applications on its website by evening so that transparency can be ensured. On Thursday, Arvind Kejriwal said that his party would retain power after the assembly elections to be held in Delhi next year and repeat the historic victory in the last election. During the padayatra campaign in Vishwas Nagar constituency of East Delhi, Kejriwal expressed confidence that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) would win more seats in the capital than in the 2020 assembly elections. He said that there has been no development in the Vishwas Nagar assembly constituency because, despite the AAP government in Delhi, the local MLA is from BJP.
