BJP Agent Files to Remove 28 Dayalpur Residents From Voter List in Mustafabad

A Bharatiya Janata Party booth-level agent has filed Form 7 applications seeking the deletion of 28 local residents from Delhi's electoral roll in the Dayalpur neighborhood of Mustafabad, northeast Delhi. The applications, submitted during the ongoing special intensive revision, cited death or permanent relocation as reasons for the requested removals.

According to records from the Election Commission of India, all 28 deletion requests were submitted by Chandra Shekhar Nainwal, a BJP-appointed booth-level agent-2 (BLA-2). The filings were made on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, during the official claims and objections period of the revision process.

Among the residents targeted for deletion are the family members of Sajid Hussain, a tailor who has lived at the same Dayalpur address for more than twenty years. Hussain learned on Wednesday that paperwork had been submitted to strike the names of his wife, Afsana Khatoon, and his son, Asad Raza Zaidi, from the voting register.

The applications filed against Hussain's family members and 26 other neighborhood voters listed the grounds for deletion as either "absent/permanently shifted" or "death." Hussain stated that he had never heard of Nainwal prior to discovering the applications lodged against his wife and son.

The submissions have placed legitimate local voters at risk of wrongful removal from the electoral roll and potential disenfranchisement during the Election Commission of India's revision exercise in the constituency.
