Uttar Pradesh[India] December 13:  Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday said his party’s alliance with the Congress will continue.

Claims Raised Over Electoral Roll Revision

Akhilesh Yadav alleged that the BJP wants to delete voters through a mapping app. The app is being used during the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Uttar Pradesh. He said there is a mismatch between uploaded data and actual voter information. He claimed this could lead to deletion of nearly three crore voters. He said this issue is serious and affects democracy. He added that his party has already raised the matter in Parliament. He urged authorities to closely examine the use of such technology.

The SP chief further alleged that the mapping app was developed by a company linked to electoral bond donations. He said the same company had donated funds to the BJP. He questioned where the voter data is being stored. He said developers should clarify how the data is being used. He alleged that vote deletion happens in areas where the BJP loses elections. He said such practices harm public trust. He asked the Election Commission to ensure transparency. He stressed that voter confidence must be protected at all costs.

Concerns Linked to 2027 Uttar Pradesh Elections
