The INDIA political alliance has filed a complaint alleging that BJP workers coerced Block Level Officers to remove names from voter lists in Jharkhand.
The INDIA bloc has lodged a formal complaint with election authorities in Jharkhand, claiming that BJP workers pressured Block Level Officers (BLOs) to delete voters from the electoral rolls. According to the allegation, the coercion took place in several districts during the pre‑election period. The complaint cites witnesses who say the officers were threatened with punitive action if they did not comply. No official response has been issued by the BJP or the state election commission as of now. If proven, the case could raise serious concerns about the integrity of the upcoming elections in the state.
