Overview
- The Congress, Raijor Dal, AJP, CPI(M) and CPI(ML) lodged the complaint at Dispur Police Station in Guwahati, naming BJP state president Dilip Saikia.
- Opposition leaders allege a January 4 Zoom call directed deletions in 60 constituencies and assigned minister Ashok Singhal to oversee the exercise, with claims of targeting 5,000–10,000 names per seat.
- The parties asked police to preserve the video-conference recording, and Raijor Dal petitioned the Election Commission for a forensic probe, audits of objection forms and safeguarding of digital records.
- Dispur police confirmed receiving the complaint without clarifying whether an FIR was registered, and the Special Revision continues with final rolls scheduled for February 10.
- BJP leaders, including Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, dismissed the allegations as baseless and said roll verification is routine, as opposition groups also flagged alleged irregular entries in draft lists in Guwahati.
