Delhi MCD by-polls: Delhi Congress chief Devendra Yadav writes to CEC, alleges irregularities in voter list in Ashok Vihar ward
Delhi Congress chief Devendra Yadav has raised concerns about voter list irregularities in the Ashok Vihar Municipal Corporation of Delhi by-election. He has written to the Chief Election Commissioner alleging a conspiracy to steal workers' voting rights. Nominations for 12 MCD seats have been filed. Polling is scheduled for November 30.
Delhi Congress chief Devendra Yadav has written a letter to the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) of Delhi alleging irregularities in the voter list in the Ashok Vihar Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) by-election.
In a letter, Yadav wrote, "I want to bring to light the theft and destruction of Purwat. This is the 13th Wazirpur Industrial Area. Most of the workers live here, which clearly means that the voting rights of the workers have been stolen as part of a conspiracy. Rahul Gandhi is not repeatedly delaying the Commission's work. We know that it is our turn to speak for Rahul Gandhi."
"There are 12 such units in Delhi for which the closing date is November 30, 2025, and there is every possibility of such a major incident occurring in other corporations. I request you to immediately correct this type of information theft in all corporations; otherwise, we will be forced to take action against the officials of the Ministry of Home Affairs," the letter further wrote on Sunday.
Earlier, on November 10, a total of 132 nominations were submitted for the 12 seats of the Delhi MCD by-elections. Among these nominations, 59 were male and 74 were female candidates.
Women candidates have submitted their nominations from notable areas, including Shalimar Bagh-B, Ashok Vihar, Dwarka-B, Dichaon Kalan, and Greater Kailash.

The last date of filing of nominations was November 10, and the scrutiny of papers will take place on November 12. The last date of withdrawal of nomination is November 15. Polling will be held on November 30.
On November 10, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta stated that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) must win all 12 seats in the upcoming Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) by-elections, emphasizing that the party's focus is on addressing the capital's long-pending civic issues.
The CM said the BJP aims to build a "developed, clean and green Delhi," adding that, unlike previous governments that engaged in politics, her administration is committed to transforming every ward into a model of development.
Speaking to the reporters, Rekha Gupta said, "We will contest on 12 seats while doing work. The condition in which Delhi has been for all these years, the difficulties it has faced - the time has come to resolve all its issues. So, it is essential for the BJP to win these 12 seats. Our goal is to have a developed and clean Delhi, a green Delhi. We want to do this together. Earlier govts only did politics...We want every ward in Delhi to be beautiful and developed."
