Investigation Underway into Alleged False Voter Deletion Forms in Delhi's Mustafabad
In Delhi's Mustafabad constituency, allegations have emerged regarding the filing of false Form 7 deletion applications targeting Muslim voters. The District Election Officer verified that 36 of 37 such forms were fabricated. Petitioners have urged the Election Commission of India to investigate and register FIRs for forgery and identity fraud, citing that most deletion requests were linked to BJP-appointed Booth-Level Agents, many of whom denied involvement. Authorities have lodged a police complaint seeking legal action under relevant electoral laws.
