Akhilesh Yadav Accuses BJP of Using Exit Polls and Voter-Roll Revision to Undercut Opposition

Officials say roughly 60% of enumeration forms are out in Uttar Pradesh, with a Nov. 15 push to complete distribution.

Overview

  • Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged exit polls are being deployed to demoralise opposition parties, citing perceived past inaccuracies and the Chandigarh outcome.
  • He claimed the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls is being misused to strike off eligible SP supporters, calling it a bid to weaken the opposition.

  • Uttar Pradesh CEO Navdeep Rinwa reported 9.38 crore of 15.44 crore voters have received forms, flagged 13 districts below 50% distribution, and directed completion by November 15.
