Opposition Alleges Electoral Irregularities in Uttar Pradesh Ahead of 2027 Polls; BJP Plans Counter CampaignPreviousNext

At a rally in Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and the INDIA bloc accused the BJP of electoral irregularities in Uttar Pradesh, including alleged wrongful deletion of voter names and manipulation of electoral rolls. Yadav predicted the BJP's defeat in the 2027 Assembly elections, criticizing the party's recent MLC election losses and slogans. The BJP responded with plans for padyatras and youth meetings to counter opposition claims and defend the Election Commission's revision exercise. The dispute highlights tensions ahead of the upcoming state polls.
