MP Congress Spokesperson's Name Deleted from Voter List, Sparks Row

• MP Congress spokesperson Mithun Ahirwar's name was deleted from the draft voter list under SIR, despite him filling out forms and having a voter card.
• Ahirwar sarcastically questioned if he would now be considered an infiltrator and sent to a detention center.
• Congress alleges deliberate deletion of names, especially rural and poor voters, to benefit BJP, with Digvijaya Singh calling the Election Commission a 'BJP agent'.
• BJP defends the process as 'list purification', while the Chief Electoral Officer assures transparency and encourages filing objections.
• The deletion of an estimated 37 lakh names from 2 crore revised voters has intensified political tensions ahead of the 2028 assembly elections.
