Delhi Election 2025: The ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have been at odds over the alleged addition and removal of names in Delhi’s voter list. Former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal has repeatedly accused the BJP of removing the names of voters, who support AAP, from the electoral rolls. On the other hand, the BJP accused the AAP of getting illegal Bangladeshi migrants and Rohingyas listed on the electoral roll.
