BJP accuses AAP of trying to block votes from key communities ahead of Delhi polls

NEW DELHI: A day before the Delhi assembly elections, BJP president Virendra Sachdeva accused the Aam Aadmi Party of attempting to prevent votes from key communities, including the Vaishya, Brahmin, and Purvanchal groups. Sachdeva alleged that AAP leaders had submitted lists to election officials in nearly 50 constituencies, claiming that thousands of Purvanchali, Vaishya, and Brahmin voters were either deceased or no longer residing at their registered addresses, and thus should be disqualified from voting. Sachdeva urged the Election Commission to dismiss any objections raised by political parties and allow all voters listed in the official Booth Level Officer records to cast their votes without hindrance. “The AAP wants to influence the voting process by creating long queues at polling booths, thus reducing voter turnout where BJP is strong,” Sachdeva said.
