Anil Gaur, the BJP candidate contesting the Seelampur Assembly seat, has made serious allegations against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Congress candidates, accusing them of orchestrating voter fraud in the constituency. Gaur claims that 300-400 fake voters were brought in from Loni, Uttar Pradesh, to manipulate the outcome of the election.
Reputation of Seelampur Constituency Has Been Tarnished
“These people have become MLAs by doing wrong things… Such wrong things should not happen,” Gaur stated, adding that the situation had tarnished the reputation of the constituency. “The AAP and Congress candidates from this constituency have defamed this area,” he continued, pointing to poor infrastructure as a key issue. “The condition of roads and sewage is very bad in this area,” Gaur said.
Gaur emphasized that he had informed the police about the alleged fake voters and called for stringent checks on their identity cards before they are allowed to vote. “Their identity cards should be checked, and only then should they be allowed to vote,” he insisted.
