AAP facilitating fake voting: BJP
Meanwhile, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva accused the Aam Aadmi Party of facilitating fake voting in the national capital.
“There is a wave of change in Delhi. People are voting against the corrupt government. Now, this ‘AAP-da’ – the ‘farzi’ govt has come to the extent where it is facilitating fake voting,” Virendra Sachdeva told ANI.
“The information that we have is that people were caught casting fake votes in the Kasturba Nagar constituency… I appeal to the people of Delhi to remain vigilant of their (AAP) tactics and vote in large numbers to fulfil the resolve of PM Modi to have a Viksit Bharat and Viksit Delhi…” he added.
Voting is underway in all 70 of Delhi’s assembly constituencies. The votes will be counted on February 8.
