Ashok Gehlot Alleges BJP Manipulation of Electoral Boundaries Ahead of 2029 ElectionsPreviousNext

Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot accused the BJP of manipulating delimitation and electoral roll revisions to weaken opposition parties ahead of the 2029 elections. He claimed that Congress-supporting wards were merged while BJP-dominated wards were divided to increase BJP representation, potentially undermining democratic processes. Gehlot also questioned the Centre's use of women's reservation to justify redrawing constituencies. He warned that if the BJP remains in power, genuine elections could lose their meaning in India.
